Advertorialized WP:BLP of a musician with no properly sourced indication of notability per WP:NMUSIC. This waves its hand in the direction of criterion #4 (touring), but the test there isn't just saying the musician toured, but showing that the musician received substantive coverage about the tour (such as concert reviews) in sources independent of himself -- and I've been utterly unable to verify the tour anywhere else either, as his name gets just three hits total in a ProQuest search and they're all event calendar listings in his hometown newspaper. This is not referenced to any other evidence of media coverage at all -- it's 4/5 primary sources and 1/5 an alt-weekly newspaper, and even that isn't linking to an actual article about Jake Kerbrat but merely to the publication's front splash page. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have much, much better sourcing than this, but as I already noted I can't find scratch.
