An organization that fails WP:GNG and WP:ORG. While there are passing mentions and announcements, there is nothing to satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH.

As things stand, I don't believe it deserves an independent article, through it might be mentioned in some kind of History of music in the United States article or subarticle. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here  01:35, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
