 * Delete per WP:BAND. No substantial coverage in independent reliable sources. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  05:31, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. The group have released three albums, one on Shanachie Records and two on Tara Music. They have also performed on national BBC Radio . Coverage includes Allmusic, and Gerry Cullen has also received coverage as a solo artist . --Michig (talk) 05:46, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I've only heard of Shanachie in relation to Reggae, not sure it's even the same one but even if it is that's not quite "two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels" as specified in WP:BAND. The Tara one certainly doesn't count as even the article admits: "In recent years many the releases on the Tara Music label are self-produced artist recordings whereby Tara Music act as distributor". So they're essentially self-released. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  01:25, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
 * It is the same Shanachie Records, which if we're going to believe every unsourced claim in Wikipedia articles is "one of the largest independent record labels in the world". Having albums distributed by a 'major' label is a long way away from 'self-releasing' albums. --Michig (talk) 06:57, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
