 * Delete. Fails WP:NMUSIC. Not notable at all. Ajf773 (talk) 11:35, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Follows WP:NMUSIC. It is notable as it meets the following criteria:
 * 1) Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself.
 * 2) Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country.
 * 3) Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable).
 * So explain HOW the criteria is met, don't just state that it is met without proof. Ajf773 (talk) 08:28, 2 October 2017 (UTC)
