  • Comment: Most of the initial section, incl. personal details like DOB, unreferenced. Please ensure that every material statement is supported by citation to reliable source.
    I cannot see anything in the career details suggesting notability per WP:MUSICBIO. As for general WP:GNG notability, the sources are all primary, with the exception of the CBC profile which is too short to be considered 'significant coverage', and in any case alone not enough.

  • Comment: Suggested improvements (please consult the style guide WP:MOS for more info):
    1) We don't refer to people by first name only; please change to full name, last name only, or personal pronoun.
    2) The 'External links' are far too many; usually an official website or similar, and perhaps one or two other links are allowed. Please cut down. And whatever remains, should come after the 'References' section.
    3) 'Notable performances' isn't really relevant; Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a running log of someone's activities.
    4) The chronology of prizes (and performances, assuming it is to remain) should run from oldest to newest.
    5) Please remove all external links from body text.
