Band with no substantive claim of passing WP:NMUSIC, written in an advertorial tone and citing only one album review for sourcing (which is not sufficient to constitute substantive coverage). No prejudice against recreation in the future if a good article can be written about them, but this version is a delete. Bearcat (talk) 21:56, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment. An anon IP editor introduced the promotional text largely copied from the group's website. I have reverted it as copyvio to a better sourced version. • Gene93k (talk) 00:16, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I've stricken the parts of my original nomination rationale which were impacted by that change. The reverted version still doesn't make a particularly strong claim of notability, however, and still isn't well sourced enough to demonstrate that the band has been the subject of substantive coverage — so I'm not prepared or willing to withdraw the entire nomination altogether.

 * Keep BBC interview already cited, [Crack magazine] interview, [All about Jazz] album review, [Sage gateshead], [Bandonthewall] with quotes from the guardian, the mercury and the times, [The Telegraph], [London Jazz News] And on and on and on. This band are getting significant coverage all over the place SPACKlick (talk) 10:01, 15 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Specific reference to WP:NMUSIC,
 * 1)Is satisfied with [The Guardian] and [The Telegraph] pieces. Both in depth, neither of them reprints of press releases.
 * 2) Album has not charted although worth noting was on the worldwide jazz album of the year 2013. (nominated but did not win)
 * 5) Label is at least 3 years old, with a couple of other acts, dubious notability although nat birchall gets a page on DE.Wikipedia
 * So I'm hanging my hat on 1), notable coverage sufficient to meet WP:GNG let alone WP:NMUSIC
