This is a college a cappella group that somehow slipped through page curation in 2015 despite having inadequate sourcing. They host an annual festival that draws regional interest and is covered in detail by the college newspaper, e.g. [1], but per WP:RSSM, given their local audience, student media may be challenged or discounted during notability discussions about topics related to home institutions. A topic which can be sourced exclusively to student media, with no evidence of wider coverage in mass market general interest media, is not likely to be viewed as notable. The best I could find from media unaffiliated with the Claremont Colleges is this article from the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, but it is unbylined and appears derived from a press release. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 22:12, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
