Claims to have won notable awards, but I have not been able to verify any of them besides the John Lennon award in this source. There are absoutely no hits on Google News, nor non-trivial sources anywhere on such sources as Allmusic, CMT, Country Standard Time, etc. John Lennon Songwriting Contest is an assertation of notability, as is being the sole writer of a hit single for Jason Michael Carroll, but it's meaningless without any non-trivial source coverage.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Weak keep - I found a more specific source for the John Lennon award, and added it. I also did some more searches online and found additional sources, which I'll add.  I would not say he "easily" passes WP:MUSIC, but he seems to be there. Bearian (talk) 21:27, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
 * He also passes WP:MUSIC as having toured extensively in coffeehousees in a National tour. Bearian (talk) 21:42, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Relisting comment. I normally close these "no consensus" but the subject of this article is a living person so let's give it a few more days. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:15, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
 * keep - though the article needs work to tie into rest of the encyclopedia. --Rocksanddirt (talk) 23:47, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
