This new article appeared on 14 August. It appears to look legit at first glance, however many of the references are lacklustre, for example, there's several links to books at amazon.com, such as Voicing Scotland: Folk, Culture, Nation 2013 and Minstrels, Poets and Vagabonds: A History of Rock Music in Glasgow 2009, and also a link to this unavailable book; no page numbers supplied either. There are also several citations linking to festival sites, none of which look highly notable. There does not appear to be any cites from reliable sources. For a Scottish band I would at least expect some coverage from Scotsman, The Skinny, Daily Record, or even The List. I have searched Google for this band, they have quite a unique name so one should expect to find something; however I failed to find anything, and I couldn't find any reviews for their album Sound of the Sun. It looks somewhat WP:SOAP. Maybe someone else can find some facts about this band. Bluidsports (talk) 16:32, 16 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. Can't find anything that demonstrates their notability. Peter Somerville (talk) 20:22, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. No significant coverage found. Nothing else to indicate that an encylopedia article is appropriate at this time. --Michig (talk) 12:03, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - the most substantial article I could find covered them winning a battle of the bands contest. Like the nominator, I looked for reviews of their album as well, and turned up a big blank. -- Whpq (talk) 15:50, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
