Diamond Rings “I’m Just Me”
Submitted by admin on Tuesday, 3 July 2012No Comment
Diamond Rings is the glammed-up solo project of Toronto musician John O’Regan, who is also the singer/guitarist for indie rock band the D’Urbervilles. While that band was taking a break in late 2008, O’Regan started writing, recording, and performing as Diamond Rings. Instead of the post-punk of his group, he took inspiration from queer theory, androgynous trailblazers David Bowie and Grace Jones, and Stars on 54’s cover of Gordon Lightfoot’s If You Could Read My Mind. Diamond Rings made its debut in August 2009 with the limited-edition split single All Yr Songs. Diamond Rings’ first full-length Special Affections is out now! I’m Just Me is the first single off the forthcoming follow-up album.
