Poorly sourced article, with some advertorial undertones, about a band whose only discernible claim of notability is that one member went on to play as a supporting session musician for more notable solo artists. This is not an WP:NMUSIC pass, but nothing else here appears to be one either -- and apart from one directory entry on an unreliable "musical rarities" fansite, the only other referencing here is unnecessary retriplication of a single article in their own hometown newspaper. But if a band doesn't have any notability claim that would pass any of NMUSIC #2 through #12, then it takes quite a lot more than just one piece of hometown coverage to get them over NMUSIC #1.

- Delete The references are a compendium of Norman Petty productions and one dedicated article in a regional reliable source. The search tools provide nothing but confirmation of the dedicated article. Not close to WP:NM. Out the revolving door. Tapered (talk) 01:51, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
