Fails WP:NMUSIC. The only source that is not Facebook is region-blocked. » Shadowowl | talk 12:19, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Originally a WP:SPA article, I flagged this for notability in 2012. I subsequently added the "Shreveport Times" item as a 1st ref though it was a mere listing, insufficient to demonstrate WP:MUSICBIO notability. Even if independently verified, I don't think the subsequently added mentions of media plays would be sufficient either. Searches on the band's earlier and later names are not finding evidence of notability. AllyD (talk) 08:15, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Delete - Beware of WP:NEXIST as they achieved some local media coverage in reliable newspapers: [1], [2]. One of their albums also got a fairly reliable review: [3]. Some may find that to be enough for WP:NBAND but I think they just barely scrape into criteria #1 of that guideline. Also note that they have two album articles that should be addressed if the band article is deleted: Vesper Belle, Hydrogen Child (Hydrogen Child album). ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:24, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
