Ray Vanderby[edit]

Although he's been a session musician on what seems to be a number of albums, I can find no references to Vanderby outside of his own publicity and various databases. He doesn't seem to be notable per WP:MUSIC. The only radio play mentioned is the rather peacocky "some of which achieved major commercial FM radio airplay nationally". The only award win is a songwriting competition. A search for that yields more about Vanderby than the competition itself. Dismas|^(talk) 08:05, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Delete per nom. I can find no evidence of individual notability online, other than credits and self-published material.—DMCer™ 01:51, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
