When the first responses to google are the users social media and there is nothing on google news except their facebook, its a good indicator that they are not notable. When the article is created by a user with PR in their name its almost guaranteed that this isn't an article we want to host. Fails BIO because there are not reliable sources that are detailed secondary independent sources. Its clearly COI too although that last one isn't a reason to delete.

 * Delete. Nothing found that would indicate that an encyclopedia article is appropriate. The award is not sufficiently important. --Michig (talk) 08:23, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete No evidence of attained WP:MUSICBIO notability; the award mentioned is clearly a student-level award. I also removed a chunk from the article that was a straight WP:COPYVIO of this article, but even that is about a band featuring the subject rather than the subject himself, so fails WP:MUSICBIO.
