Mike D, born Michael Louis Diamond, is a New York hip hop artist whose work also reaches into rap rock, hardcore punk, and alternative hip hop. He came up through Beastie Boys and co-founded the Grand Royal label as part of that work. His recent run of releases includes "Switch Up" and "What We Got," both out in 2026, with the album "Thank You" announced for release on August 28, 2026.
Born in New York City in 1965, Mike D was raised by parents who worked in the art world and was actively playing in bands by his teens. That early footing carried into a string of projects beyond Beastie Boys, among them Country Mike & the Boys, The Latch Brothers, and Big Fat Love.
On the road, Mike D has played rooms like the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC, The Orange Peel in Asheville, and The Eastern in Atlanta, making him a grounded live draw for festival and fair lineups, college events, corporate dates, and private engagements.
