Group does not seem notable. It fails to meet any of the requirements of WP:BAND, and I can't find any significant coverage. Discogs https://www.discogs.com/artist/5489890-The-Callen-Sisters they have released only two albums (one in 2007 on Moon Mouth Records, and one self-released in 2010), and one EP (self-released in 2014). I suspect that Moon Mouth Records is just the sisters, since I can find no record of any other releases by this supposed label. No individually notable musicians in the group. The sources consist of nothing but their home page http://www.thecallensisters.com/ (which currently consists of nothing but a picture of them and links to iTunes, Spotify, etc and their defunct social media sites), a dead link to an entry for one of the sisters on something called www.harpmall.com (entire domain dead), and a dead link to an interview from offtherecordmag.com (used only to support the statement "Both sisters were fond of music since childhood, and received inspiration and support from their mother, Kim.") The entire offtherecordmag.com domain is dead, but I believe it was likely what is now https://www.instagram.com/offtherecord.mag/ , a private Instragram blog on music.
I trimmed a few useless or dead external links before opening this. Meters ( talk) 04:41, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
- Comment The article has seen no content edits since late 2008, when the presumably COI user:Harpguitar22 made a few edits, and is virtually unchanged from the original stub created in July 2008 by user:Eric278. Meters ( talk) 04:51, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

- Delete - Lack of reliable coverage as described nicely by the nominator. I also found a friendly interview at a site of unknown reliability: [1], and they have some blank entries at AllMusic. Overall, this WP article was probably created as a promotional effort around the time that the band created other social media and promotional sites when they got started. The fact that little substantial info was ever added to the article after that, including their second and third albums, indicates that the band's early supporters wrote it then forgot about it, while the band never generated enough interest to encourage anyone else to maintain the article. It appears that they rarely played live and today are simply maintaining accounts for selling their old releases. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 18:12, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
