A7 declined. There is literally nothing out there on this guy. A search for the song title + Michael Carey yielded nothing. The only source in the article has been robots.txt'd, making it unclear how distinct the coverage was.His name is mentioned passingly in sources on Randy Bachman (or in the context of other people entirely such as this), but notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. American Radio History, Google Books, etc. all yield nothing of note when searching for various keywords. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 18:58, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Total lack of sourcing and no allegation of general notability aside, there's zero indication this person would pass WP:MUSICBIO with criteria such as charting, awards, or touring. Bearian (talk) 01:56, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non-notable musician, the only claim is that he released an album. It only has 1 (inaccessible) source and I cannot find more with a quick Web search. Does not pass WP:GNG or WP:MUSICBIO. -Lopifalko (talk) 17:56, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. A search yielded nothing. Fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:GNG, and WP:NMUSIC.4meter4 (talk) 03:30, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
