No evidence of notability, almost entirely only edited by the subject of the article. I can't find any reliable sources that could be added to the article. OK! Records has similar problems and I will also nominate this for deletion. Smartse (talk) 15:37, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Delete Besides the obvious COI and self-promotion issues, there are almost no third-party sources that mention this artist. No evidence of notability. Angryapathy (talk) 16:48, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete COI and self promotion are not valid reasons for deletion in themselves. But this artist does not even approach satisfying the notability criteria for musicians and ensembles. I could find no reviews or other media coverage, no record of public performances, let alone a tour, and all recordings are for a non-notable label which appears to be the equivalent of self-published books.
