Musician BLP that appears to fail WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC. Article likely started as an autobiography--note article creator username "Occh27" and subject's real last name Occhigrossi. Large list of references, but these are almost entirely press releases, blog posts and passing mentions. Article creator and all other substantial contributors of content have few or no other edits other than to this article. I found no other coverage in reliable sources to support notability. --Finngall ^talk 18:20, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and draft to AFC for now as although the article would first appear acceptable, the sourcing could be better and my searches found nothing good but this may be become better later so saving it would help. SwisterTwister talk 06:17, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSIC. As for the AfC suggestion, I vehemently oppose it, given it would benefit nobody. The subject is non-notable and will most likely remain so for the next 6 months, which is how long AfC drafts last before being nominated for deletion. Notability is determined by coverage, not by time. If he becomes notable then we can reconsider undeleting the article, but there is no use in adding another hopeless draft to the thousands already waiting for deletion in AfC's endless rejected categories. Best, FoCuS contribs; talk to me! 17:46, 20 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
