There are those rare bands that, once you step into their sonic world, captivate you entirely. Western Australia's breakout band DICE is one of those bands. Comprising Ben Hodge, Tom King, Regan Beazley, and Sam Barrett-Lennard, in 2024 DICE invited listeners into their vibrant universe with their debut album Midnight Zoo — a world from which there's no turning back.
After a chance meeting at a backyard party and bonding over their diverse tastes in music, it took some convincing to get all members of South Summit to join the band. Now one of Perth’s most talked about live bands, the five guys can’t imagine doinganything else. Hidden away from the East Coast music scene – South Summit has created a unique sound, not influenced by what the rest of the country is doing.

With honest lyricism and dynamic instrumentation, they push boundaries in the indie guitar scene. Their debut album, Lustre, arrives July 2024, featuring singles Ahead of Myself, Check Mate, and Guard My Heart.
