Hey Fram, everything I've added is from my band Dear Deadly. We are a Chicago based rock band and the Album pictures removed are owned by me. I have attached some credible sources and would appreciate any feedback. Thank you - Benny McCulloch

The problem is that there is no evidence that your band is truly notable according to Wikipedia standards. This says nothing about the quality or music of your band, we have many, many articles on utter shite plastic pop bands; but to get an article here, a band needs to be succesful (see e.g. Fleddy Melculy, an article I created yesterday about a metal band which reached #1 in the album charts in my country), or otherwise have received widespread attention in reliable, sufficiently large mainstream or notable specialized sources. Full articles in e.g. the Chicago Tribune, or Pitchfork, or ... ; what is not sufficient though is attention from blogs, fora, ... or things like routine announcements of concerts. Feel free to present your case at the deletion discussion linked from the top of your article! Fram (talk) 10:25, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
