Appears to fail both WP:GNG and WP:MUSIC. I could not find multiple reliable sources on him. The one reference from the Windsor Star blog to being inducted into a hall of fame appears to be more of a community service award for musicians. The article itself notes that some of the people enrolled in the hall of fame are virtually unknowns, and thus it doesn't go far in establishing notability. This also seems to be an autobiographical article. TonyBallioni (talk) 18:49, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

 * It bears noting here that the article's creator is User:Ddamore1, raising the strong likelihood of WP:COI. Otherwise, if you've got to rely on Ancestry.com (a site which violates Wikipedia's proscription against citing user-edited content sites as references) for birth information, then chances are you don't even pass WP:GNG to begin with — and if the best you can actually do for a substantive notability claim is being inducted into a local music "hall of fame", then you haven't really gained enough to actually pass WP:NMUSIC either.
