Article seems to be a promo page not a reference article. List of awards won seem to lack references and most have no national significance, awarded by local parties and not widely recognizable public organizations. Claims of Grammy Awards and other nominations are not substantiated with references. Grammy "eligible" ? That's not an award? Yomymainman (talk) 23:28, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment -- The whole thing reads like advertising copy. No discography; inclusion of "awards" before there was a band; inclusion of mere nominations.  The whole thing wreeks of WP:NN, but I am not formally voting because I do not know enough.  Peterkingiron (talk) 19:25, 16 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Support - Not notable. only one of the references provided is valid (the link to the Register). The others are either dead, press releases, or directly related to the band.  (I'm removing the releases that are listed as "eligible" - the only criteria for a record to be "eligible" for a Grammy is that it was released at a specific time.)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Support Deletion - Definitely NOT NOTABLE. Reads like a press kit. None of the awards listed are from any widespread, industry recognized organization.  None of the awards themselves show up with their own Wiki page which supports the notion of their narrow reach.  Search of national Christian (and secular) charts turn up NO singles or albums that have ever charted by the group?  As noted above, hardly any of the references work and the few that do, don't really reference reliable sources.  IndieNewsReview (talk) 15:16, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Support deletion. Article reads like the artist's own pr. Awards are iffy.  Some before there was a band? JmacBrown (talk) 18:13, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
