From last.fm:

Diamond Rings is the musical alter-ego of Toronto-based multiplatform artist John O (John O'Regan), first conceived in the summer of 2009. A 7" and home-made video for his first bedroom-recorded single "All Yr Songs" helped to propel Diamond Rings into the spotlight, first garnering attention from Canadian blogs like Chromewaves, and then eventually a "Best New Music" honors from Pitchfork. The 7" was issued as split with fellow Ontario musicians PS I Love You on O'Regan's own boutique label, Hype Lighter. Read more about Diamond Rings on Last.fm.
