Scuba Dice are a four-piece Pop-Punk band from the South-East of Ireland. Half of the band were in the original lineup which dates back as far as 2004. Having each come from differing, previous musical projects, their variety of tastes sparked an infusion of influences which creates their unique sound.
After several years on the local scene, building a reputation with an electric live show and gaining much acclaim, the band recorded a very succesfull self-titled EP. These popular recordings opened many doors for the band and in early 2007 Scuba Dice made their television debut as contestants in the national TV show “You’re A Star”, competing for the coveted prize of a record contract. Involvement in a reality TV show of this nature may have been frowned upon by many, but Scuba Dice had a different approach. Staying true to themselves and attempting to shatter the expected polished image, they may have changed opinions of the show - achieving fourth position out of the thousands of initial entries. In return, they gained and developed much musical and stage experience in The Helix. The nine weeks of TV, newspaper and radio exposure widened the band’s audience and secured them a nationwide following.
The band released their debut single in March 2007 which reached Number 8 in the Irish singles chart and Number 2 the downoload charts and later became the 42nd best selling single for an irish artist in 2007.
2008 statarted with a bang with the addition of their song “Made” on a compilation CD called “The Mob Rules – A Pop-Punk Revolution Volume 2” released by Californian record company 272 records this compilation ireleased in April of 2008. The record is to be distributed for sale to Amoeba Music (Hollywood’s largest and most popular record store) and Amazon.com. In addition, there is a deal with some of the hottest rock shops on Hollywood Blvd, Sunset Blvd and Melrose Ave for distribution of the compilation. 'Made' was chosen as the 2nd single out of 3 to be released on the album.
In August of 2008 the band took part in LA or Busk, a competition open to unsigned irish bands . The competition which was run by Blastspace, consisted of 8 heats, each heat consisting of 10 of Ireland's best young bands. Scuba Dice went on to finish 3rd in an extreamly closely contested final.
Rejuvinated with the addition of Liam and Daire to the lineup, the band have been developing at a fast pace. They have recently announced plans for their 1st headlinging Irish tour in Febuary 2009, to promote their new single 'Let Go'. Expectations for 2009 are high for the band with interest from european and stateside record labels, plans for the release of their full-lenght album. The future is very bright for this young and hard working band.
