 * Delete. I A7ed it right at the beginning. Another editor (not finding it to meet A7) PRODded it instead. The author rewrote the article, removing the PROD tag, and then I guess there was no follow-up on the deletion front. But even today a web search shows no signs of notability, only social media and, apart from those, obituaries for at least three people who all had brothers named Earl and Dallas.

 * Comment: There's definitely more said/written about the band in third-party sources than mentioned in the discussion here. A news piece focused on the band in TV4 Jönköping, a short piece in Vetlanda-Posten ("Earl and Dallas till regionfinal") in 2013, another one in Smålands-Tidningen ("Tar ton i sångkamp") the same year, and then a number of mentions in Swedish newspapers articles which aren't focused on the band. But might still be difficult to build an article on that material. //Julle (talk) 16:42, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete: I just do not see any notability here. NBAND includes the note asserting that sources must be Independant. Passing mention does not advance notability. Also, it should be noted that this involves people so BLP related. A search of the record label returns "Earl and Dallas" so does not appear notable and could be self-published. -- Otr500 (talk) 10:10, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
