Doesn't meet any of the WP:MUSICBIO criteria. Also doesn't meet WP:GNG, even after recent sourcing additions (the only major coverage about her is at JazzPolice, which is not clearly a WP:RS). Her family members are famous, so she gets some coverage by talking about them, and this pattern is seen in most of the other sources: they are not about her; they mention her when discussing something else. She gets 29 words in the book on regional blues, and that's including her own name in the count. EddieHugh (talk) 21:18, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I have added a few other references. I will leave it up to others to assess whether she meets any criteria. RebeccaGreen (talk) 03:29, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not for me still. The jazz club review is from a business where one of the reviewed musicians often plays, so isn't independent. I don't know if the online radio broadcast is an RS. Most of the others are just mentions of her in lists of people. Tens/hundreds of millions of people would have an article if her coverage were enough to be "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" (GNG).
