Joyous Sounds

Music group with no 3rd party references to establish notability (the one ref is to the site of the recording studio); the initial edit of the article shows that their CD has very limited distribution (which it was promoting). The article has been independently cleaned up since creation, but the group still appears to be non-notable. Ros0709 (talk) 20:22, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: insufficient notability, per WP:BAND. JamesBurns (talk) 05:34, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Since the AfD began, three references have been added: articles about the group in the local press. In terms of the general notability guideline, or WP:MUSIC criterion #1, (neither of which discourage the use of local sources to establish notability) this pushes it into the realm of a weak keep.
