 * Keep Leaning on the edge, but appears to meet GNG, at minimum. Citations are weak, dominated by youtube videos, however there is some semblance of being multi-faceted. Subject itself did return somewhat better-than-mediocre internet search results. Holland received coverage in a Virgin article, here, and here (also potentially here, however the source is somewhat dubious provided they accept press releases for publication). He also had a collaboration with Meinl Percussion. Artist also has coverage in numerous articles in Alternative Press, some of which appear more independent than others. With respect to WP:NMUSICIAN, I am inclined to say that the first criterion is met and therefore notability established. Alternatively, a redirect to The Word Alive may be appropriate. Bgv.

 * Redirect to The Word Alive. I think the previous voter's analysis supports this redirect option more than keeping. The drummer did get some media coverage, particularly from Alternative Press (e.g., ), but it was during his time with The Word Alive. After he left that band, he became a YouTuber and session/backup musician, and just about all of his media coverage from those years is actually about the songs he covered or the notable musicians he backed up. Also, outside of the info about The Word Alive, the rest of this article is either fancruft or self-promotional, and rather shameless too. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 14:33, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
