Keep The band is signed to Steady Records (a subsidiary of Virgin) and Hollywood Records, both big labels. They were on the Billboard Next Big Sound chart for eight weeks. One of the members finished fifth on The X Factor. I created the article, which is averaging 542 page views per day over the last month, so there's clearly a lot of interest in the band.--Bernie44 (talk) 13:31, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment A subsidiary of a major label is not the same as being on a major label. Steady Records is not an important label, but Hollywood Records is, so you are half right. Billboards Next Big Sound Chart is not the same as actually being on a billboard chart; rather, it is a tracking systems of releases that are close to making the charts (in other words, for eight weeks this band almost made it into the charts, but didn't) And page views mean nothing as they are unreliable. Otherwise, I have no opinions about this AfD nomination. ShelbyMarion (talk) 15:05, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment a band that might be notable at some point at the future still doesn't mean that it is notable now. I can't see anything about this band at all that would qualify it under WP:BAND. Also for band member notability, if two or more members are notable in their own right then that can be a qualification. One person placed fifth on the X Factor doesn't qualify for that.

Comment I am not seeing any lasting significance here, what coverage they did get in 2015 does not meet GNG or NMUSIC. Α Guy into Bοοks™ § (Message) - 07:57, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I would think their performance this year at Arthur Ashe Kids' Day (which was broadcast nationally on ABC on August 27) qualifies here: "Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or TV network."--Bernie44 (talk) 17:52, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
