Central claim to delete the page is invalid. The article meets criteria 1. and 11. for musicians and ensembles. Criteria 1: Several non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself are listed in the sources for the article, including: There are also dozens of other non-trivial, published works that are not yet listed in the sources for the article such as mentions on Owsla blog NestHQ, and Bandcamp Weekly Criteria 11: the song "Nowadays" was played on rotation by DJ and music journalist Mary Anne Hobbs on her XFM show Music:Response Criteria 2: Criteria is debatable as YUS was #2 on We_Are_Hunted charts in late 2012.
 * 2 Phoenix New Times articles (not counting print)
 * Articles from blogs listed on Hype Machine (umstrum.com)

Also of note: Artist's Twitter account is verified, and has over 1 million streams and ~5000 monthly listeners on Spotify.
