StraussInTheHouse hello and I note your concern about the sources. I will point out that there is a longer article on the is.wikipedia for Kristjana Stefánsdóttir, and that Kristjana & Agnar are considered to be important figures on the Icelandic Jazz topic. Some sources I have found for you to look at for this article are. visir radio RUV.

Kristjana has been awarded the Icelandic Theater Award three times, and nominated for the Icelandic Music Awards several times. I recommend looking at Kristjana's own overview of her awards. It does also pick out some of the more positive reviews of her work.

I have focused on Kristjana here because I consider that it is easier to establish notability for her. Looking at Agnar should be done as well, so here are some sources. Iceland Music Ismus, less is avilable on the world wide web for Agnar. I would not have chosen to group them together as has been done as it does not appear to be a pairing in the careers of either musician above that of each musicians own relevance.

Do let me know what you think. Frayæ 20:22, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

• Comment: Frayæ, as you said, your comments and links are about Kristjana Stefánsdóttir, whereas this discussion is about whether the collective "Kristjana & Agnar" meets the WP:MUSICBIO notability criteria. I am not seeing anything better than the brief All About Jazz review/notice of their album together, which is not really enough. You may be better creating an article specifically about Kristjana Stefánsdóttir, using the references which you have identified? AllyD (talk) 12:07, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

That would be perfectly good enough. Frayæ 12:10, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
