Subject isn't particularly notable and I haven't been able to find much coverage on him at all. Sources used in the article seem rather poor. Dawnbails (talk) 00:14, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. All the cited sources are self-published and/or not independent of the subject. The guy does have a (very cursory) entry on AllMusic, but I think the consensus is that site isn't reliable for biographical information. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 01:07, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

AllMusic bios are considered reliable by the wikipedia music projects with some dissenting voices in a minority at RSN, Atlantic306 (talk) 21:43, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No coverage in Gnews for this person, has bandcamp and last.fm hits, but that's about all. Sources used are red or orange per sourcebot, so no help for notability there. Looks like a delete but I'd support a redirect or merge to one particular band (unsure which is the more pertinent one in this case). Oaktree b (talk) 12:12, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete His work does not appear to be notable. As WeirdNAnnoyed mentioned, most sources are self-published which raises more of a red flag for me. Grahaml35 (talk) 13:06, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
