Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:BAND. Simply a WP:YAMB who never made it – they were in existence for less than three years, and released just three singles, the first of which was on a non-notable record label, and the other two were self-released. Yes, they got played on a national radio station (albeit after midnight, when the show in question is broadcast), but this radio show only seeks out and plays unknown new acts, so by definition every band played on the show will be not notable at that stage in their career.

I'll add that WP:BAND criteria regarding radio play specifies a band's work/song needs to be in rotation as opposed to random play(s) on a specific show. No evidence is provided that this band's work was in rotation. ShelbyMarion (talk) 11:05, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, absolutely - the nature of the show in question is that bands only get played once on it, as their "big break", and then the presenter moves on to the hundreds of other acts waiting for their song to be played. It's very unlikely that they or any other act on the programme got more than a single spin. Richard3120 (talk) 21:38, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
