– If a group plays their instruments, Wikipedia normally refers to them as a "band" rather than a "group", which is normally for singers only (see, for example, Muse (band) but TLC (group)), and these terms are used as disambiguators if needed. However, the Buoys were clearly also a band, so nationalities are required in order to differentiate between the two bands' articles on Wikipedia. Richard3120 (talk) 19:08, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Support per nom. No primary topic, and the current text in the parentheses is incomplete disambiguation. Paintspot Infez (talk) 01:47, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Support this makes good sense and would make it easier for ordinary users to find the band they want.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 03:54, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
