Kim Mitchell to release “Diamonds Diamonds” featuring Barenaked Ladies
On February 22nd, Kim Mitchell will release a re-recorded version of his 1981 hit single, “Diamonds Diamonds”. The song, produced by Greg Wells (Keith Urban, Twenty-One Pilots, Adele), will also feature the work of Barenaked Ladies.
“After hearing audiences sing this song louder than the band on many nights, we decided to give a nod to this classic without trying to make it a period piece. Simply, let’s record it more like we play it now,” said Kim Mitchell. “Working with Barenaked Ladies made the session more vibed and fun than we could have imagined. She STILL takes more whiskey than I wine!”
Max Webster and “Diamonds Diamonds” in particular, were a great influence on members of the multi-platinum Canadian rock band Barenaked Ladies. It was then the perfect fit when Mitchell decided to ask his longtime friends to be part of the re-recording.

I’m Gerrod, a Toronto based writer and musician. As soon as I started drumming, music became one of my greatest passions. Since then, I have also picked up the guitar, bass, and a hint of the piano. I am currently studying music and education at York University, and drum in a local hard rock band, One In The Chamber. This puts me right in the heart of Toronto’s growing music scene.
