Article has been refused from AfC, and previously speedied. Refs are pretty much all primary sources. No good sources showing GNG met. Several linked pages are similarly dubious creations by this same user, it appears there may be a COI/PROMO issue going on. JamesG5 (talk) 04:54, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG. Google search does not turn up any reliable sources that are independent of the subject and talk about the subject in depth. All sources used in the article are self-published and user-generated sites or retailers and fail to establish notability. --Ashley yoursmile! 04:30, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
