Doesn't meet WP:NMG, all self referential or primary sources. FrederalBacon (talk) 18:28, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note This appears to be an article that has sat abandoned for a long time without much update. The notability when it was created was from one article and the subjects own website. Looking, it appears there is nothing but that, even after 15 years. FrederalBacon (talk) 18:38, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I believe the reasoning for deletion is erroneous. The cited sources (Phoenix New Times and Allmusic.com) are established and are not primary sources. I did remove the primary sources previously listed under "further reading." Thank you. IakaNoctra (talk) 18:47, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The noted "All Music" is just a discography list. Same with the Discogs link. Only link that infers notability is the one article in Pheonix New Times from 2005. Googling him give me nothing but primary sources or lists of his discography. None of that confers notability. FrederalBacon (talk) 18:53, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
