WP:BLP of a musician, whose claims of notability are not properly sourced. This was a good faith creation in 2005, when our criteria for the notability of musicians were a lot looser than they are in 2018 -- but the guy simply doesn't have the media coverage needed to clear the standards that apply today. Five of the six footnotes here are primary sources, not reliable or notability-supporting ones, and the only one that's actually to a media outlet is a Q&A interview in which he's talking about himself in a local interest magazine in his own hometown. There simply isn't a notability claim here that passes WP:NMUSIC as it stands today, and there's no quality sourcing on which to base a WP:GNG claim on either.

• Delete The only secondary WP:RS I see is this interview in Ottawa Life Magazine. He needs at least one more to meet WP:GNG. --David Tornheim (talk) 08:09, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
