WP:BLP of a musician, who does not have any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC or any strong reliable source coverage to carry it. The strongest notability claim being made here is that his music exists, and the only sources being cited are a WordPress blog and a single piece of local coverage in the subject's own hometown — which means the sourcing here isn't solid enough to get him over NMUSIC #1, and nothing stated in the article gets him over any of NMUSIC #2 through #12 either. Obviously if he breaks out strongly enough in the future to change the notability equation, then the article can be recreated at that time — but nothing here is enough to already earn him an article as of today.

 * Delete - opening acts are not normally notable; he has not toured North America nor done anything else that is notable. Everybody including my old roommate has a record out. Bearian (talk) 02:49, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete This article fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC because the poor sources in the article and the ones I found in a search fail to demonstrate WP:SIGCOV of notability. Blogs (not a valid source) and local coverage do nothing to prove notability, nor does the fact that he is typically just part of opening acts for more well known groups. Notability doesn't automatically transfer from one group to another. Newshunter12 (talk) 10:12, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
