I found very little about this band in reliable online sources beyond performing at clubs in Toronto. The article says they toured extensively and had singles on charts, but I can't find anything about this. Perhaps another editor will be more successful. —Anne Delong (talk) 04:48, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The charting claims in the article are tied to campus radio, meaning !earshot, meaning non-IFPI-certified WP:BADCHART — and nothing else here, neither in the substance nor in the sourcing, improves the basis for notability either. Bearcat (talk) 05:24, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: fails WP:BAND. Article creator only worked on this article and Etobicoke School of the Arts, where the band was formed – I suspect the author was someone who attended the school with the group members. No evidence of notability outside of campus radio and local gigs. Richard3120 (talk) 20:32, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
