Diamond Cafe is the solo project of 23-year-old Tristan Thompson of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Thompson started off as a Michael Jackson impersonator when he was 12, and started to sing shortly after. He also made his way into Canada's pop scene when he was 15 and was signed to Chatter Records with the hopes of becoming a pop sensation. At the age of 18, Thompson decided to create his own music independently under the name Diamond Cafe.

In 2017, Thompson released his first EP titled Breathe, and shortly released his first full-length self-titled album. The energy, soul and work he puts into his music is unbelievable. The fact that Thompson was only 18 when he made his project debut shows the amount of talent he possesses. Thompson incorporates 80's synth-pop with old-school funk, along with smooth falsettos that show off an impressive vocal range.

These are copies of the fan funded project from Ethical Hustler Records in 2019, the only way to obtain this record at the time. We got a few left! NEW & SEALED
