Non-notable band. None of the the criteria at WP:MUSIC are met: one EP release on a non-notable label. Their music was aparrently used in a skating video entered into a competition but that is still well short of criterion #10 at WP:MUSIC. I42 (talk) 07:27, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I am also nominating the article about one of the band members for the same reasons:
- Keep. The band appears to pass the touring criterion of WP:MUSIC. Its website says: "The EP has received praise worldwide and has helped Air Castles to play in Spain, tour the UK, achieve a US licensing contract and get endorsements from Orange Amplifiers and Roland." A list of shows appears at http://aircastlesmusic.com/ -- Eastmain (talk) 08:19, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- (ec with J04n below) I do not see that this has been met: the requirement is for "non-trivial coverage in a reliable source of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country". I failed to find anything other than primary sources or event listings. I42 (talk) 18:52, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. I can't find enough to qualify for WP:BAND, the best WP:3PARTY I could find is this and multiple sources are needed. All allmusic has is a tracklist for their EP. Their tour doesn't qualify for criterion 4 unless it has "non-trivial coverage in a reliable source", a mention on their website just isn't enough. If someone can dig up anything else I would be happy to change my !vote. J04n(talk page) 18:48, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete both for clearly failing WP:MUSIC. LibStar (talk) 22:49, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
