I am nominating this article because I do not believe it meets the notability guidelines as specified in WP:BAND. It contains extremely detailed coverage of the subject's life, yet falls short on mentioning any notability on the subject's significance as a musician (the lead in states that the subject is an 'American singer-songwriter'. Furthermore, as indicated by a tag already placed on the article, the article may have WP:COI and WP:NPOV issues as it seems to be an autobiography based on the creators username (user:grismj).

Delete - appears to be self published. Only studio album on CD Baby, released by Mg Music group (=Matthew Griswold Music). No significant independent coverage. Seems autobiographical. --skew-t (talk) 12:04, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 14:49, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I'm not finding in-depth coverage for this singer-songwriter; does not appear to satisfy WP:MUSICBIO. Gongshow ^Talk 23:26, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
