I'm just not sure this group is really notable. Sourcing is either mentions in local alternative press or reviews from blogs and so forth. (and youtube and the band's own website, which seems to be defunct) Beeblebrox (talk) 12:02, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep I share the same concern about the local coverage that the band has, but I also found https://www.wvxu.org/post/shiny-and-spoon-box-bullets#stream/0 and https://www.citybeat.com/music/music-feature/article/13006795/banded-together . Perhaps rescuing the sources in the article will prove useful as well. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:41, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure I follow your logic. WVXU is a local station and the piece you cited identifies itself a s local music blog, City Beat is the local alternative press I referred to in my nomination. Beeblebrox (talk) 19:13, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Based on the available info they don't meet WP:BAND criteria. The award they won is non-notable, since it doesn't have a Wiki page. Expertwikiguy (talk) 04:45, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete Despite popular belief, every subject has to be notable according to the basic notability guideline (WP:N). The subject does not receive significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent secondary sources therefore should not be included as per the guideline. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 18:19, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Yes they received some local newspaper coverage which could help their case, but per #7 at WP:NBAND they have not been described in that coverage as particularly noteworthy in their city. A lack of coverage everywhere else means they do not reach any of the other WP:NBAND requirements. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:54, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
