Featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across national radio or TV network – No Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases. Singers and musicians who are only notable for participating in a reality television series may be redirected to an article about the series, until they have demonstrated they are independently notable. Also of note - all references are MySpace or Facebook. Яεñ99 (talk) 03:42, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - article seems to rely entirely on announcements made by the band on Facebook. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC spectacularly. Sionk (talk) 04:08, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
