Looks like they were a small band with no sign of notoriety and only active for 2013-2014. Bakertheacre ^Chat/_{What I Baked} 17:38, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. In terms of WP:NBAND, the subject appears to have had one single which was in the Irish Charts for one week (at number 24) back in 2013. As far as I can tell, it was the band's only charting single. In terms of WP:SIGCOV, the subject seems to appear only very sparingly in the Irish newspapers of record. For example, of the three articles I can find in the Irish Times, only one seems to be about the subject themselves. And that seems to be a single album review. And, while a search in the Independent News & Media stable of regional papers returns more examples, most are not really contributory to SIGCOV. And the main two articles date from just a few months apart. The first is a piece in the regional Bray People which talks a debut album launch (in May 2014). And the second is from the same regional Bray People paper which talks about the band's final gig (just a few months later in Dec 2014). Per nom, seems to be a fairly short-lived band, who achieved some moderate success, but not substantially to the extent that SIGCOV or NBAND are convincingly met. My recommendation leans towards 'delete'.... Guliolopez (talk) 19:23, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and merge with Peakin' Trippers. After additional WP:BEFORE investigations, I am inclined to update my !vote to "merge". While, per the above and nom, it originally seemed like the group barely existed for a year or so, it now seems (in particular based on the ref describing their disbandment) that Peakin' Trippers and Big September are two articles covering the same subject. With several otherwise reliable sources confirming the name change. This evidence of coverage, together with the evidence of (granted limited) chart success, suggests to me that NN is met. And a merged version of the article should likely be retained. Albeit with the quasi-promotional guff from the Peakin' Trippers title removed.... Guliolopez (talk) 09:32, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and merge with Peakin' Trippers as above as they seem to be the same group and they definitely pass WP:NMUSIC with a number one charting release on the Irish national charts and also have reliable sources coverage, in my view Atlantic306 (talk) 00:45, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
