Fails WP:MUSICIAN. All I could find is an article in Gaston Alive magazine. Working with famous people doesn't satisfy the notability requirements. Clarityfiend (talk) 20:26, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete. Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NMUSIC. I found one other source/link from an old version of the page, now archived here. However, it's a passing mention of a performance, plus a passage of text that 1) feels like a press release and 2) mirrors pretty closely text that's in the article. —C.Fred (talk) 20:36, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Comments. Based on the allegations, if true, that he has toured extensively, he could pass WP:CREATIVE. I;d need to research this case more. Give me a few days. Bearian (talk) 15:40, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
 * How does touring extensively satisfy CREATIVE? Clarityfiend (talk) 20:04, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
 * It is in WP:MUSICBIO, which is part of NMUSIC: "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." That criterion has been disputed, though. —C.Fred (talk) 20:33, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Where's the "non-trivial coverage" though? Clarityfiend (talk) 20:34, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
