Following the Australian tour, DICE will head to the UK and Europe for headline shows in Amsterdam, London, and Bristol. The tour will continue to the States, with performances in New York, Toronto, Chicago, Denver, and concluding in Los Angeles.
Midnight Zoo, set for release on Friday, August 9, 2024, follows the critical acclaim of their 2021 debut and their breakout 2023, which included sold-out tours, international radio play, and a spot on triple j's Hottest 100. This highly anticipated debut record promises to reveal a more introspective, multifaceted sound, moving beyond the carefree veneer of their earlier work.
Midnight Zoo is described as a sonic odyssey reflecting the whirlwind year of creation for the band. The album dares to explore complex themes, offering a genre-bending journey from dancefloor to dawn. DICE expresses that their love for music derives from its authenticity and that this album serves as a window into their lives and memorable experiences throughout the recording process.
Written, recorded, and produced in their hometown of Perth at Tone City Records, the debut album stands as an ode to their roots. The name Midnight Zoo originates from the studio where they created their music, known for its long nights and wild energy. The term reflects both the atmosphere of the studio and the chaotic yet magical environment that fueled their creativity.

Unafraid to dive into more complex themes,Midnight Zoopromises a genre-bending journey from dancefloor to dawn. “We find our love for music through its authenticity. There’s a certain beauty to creating music because it is a culmination of your own emotions, experiences and personality. ‘Midnight Zoo’ is a window into what our lives have been like and the memories we’ve made during producing the record.Written, recorded and produced in their hometown of Perth at Tone City Records, the debut album is an ode to their home as a band and their roots. “The ‘Midnight Zoo’ is the name we gave to Tone City Studios, the location of our creation. It was the place we all went to get away from everything, when we felt sad, when we had a fight, but it was also where our creativity was at its strongest. Termed 'Midnight Zoo' because of its long nights, wild energy and full moon recordings, this title just fits like a glove with both the tracks and its creation” DICE say of the forthcoming LP. “It's also always been a joke that the studio is like a zoo and when it turns to night, that's when the magic happens”.
