Fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. Article was created in April 2011, and survived a speedy delete and PROD in quick succession due to claims of notability. At the time Avery was being touted as "the next big thing", but seven years on, her music career appears to have amounted to very little. As far as I can tell, she was signed at the age of 15 in November 2010 by Universal Music after an music executive saw her on YouTube. Following two failed singles, she left Universal after just twelve months and signed with Island Def Jam, but this doesn't appear to have been a successful move either, and by 2013/4 she was back to releasing music on her SoundCloud and social media accounts. The last songs mentioned in the article are from 2014: the only songs I can find of hers since then are covers of various songs by Shawn Mendes, Swedish House Mafia and Green Day, all on social media. The official website that is archived in the article is now dead and the domain up for sale. Looking at her Twitter and Instagram posts, it appears she has more or less given up the music career and is focusing on being a model instead. Richard3120 (talk) 18:43, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
