I originally tagged this with a blp prod, which was incorrect due to the inclusion of the musician's own web page, which satisfied the condition of at least one reference. I have been waiting to see if there would be any improvement. Unfortunately, there hasn't. Current sourcing consists of mentions, or non-independent sources. Searches turned up some more mentions of him (was surprised to see how many people actually have this name), however, none of the in-depth coverage from reliable independent sources which would be necessary to establish notability.

 * Delete – I couldn't find anything in the way of the in-depth coverage needed to satisfy WP:MUSICBIO. The sources presented in the article are either passing mentions or non-independent. It's probably too soon for an article at this time, unfortunately. Mz7 (talk) 04:12, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
