Dish was formed on December 25, 2011 under Stardust Promotion as part of Ebidan. On June 10, 2012, they officially debuted under Stardust Records with their Single "It's Alright". On June 19, 2013, Dish had their major debut for single "I Can Hear" under Sony Music Records which was chosen as the 25th ending theme song for the anime, Naruto Shippuden.[4][5][6] Dish's third major single, "Freak Show", was produced by Kenichi Maeyamada.[7]

The group name Dish stands for "being everyone's main dish", because of their band name they started a tradition of throwing custom-made paper plates to their audience during their live performances.[citation needed]

In January 2017, during their New Year Nippon Budokan concert, the band announced that former CustomiZ member Daichi Izumi would join Dish as their drummer.[8]

In 2020, they released "Neko (the First Take version)", which written by Aimyon, peaked No.11 in Japan Hot 100.[9][10] Their fourth major label studio album, 2021's X, features collaborations with Glim Spanky, Haruko Nagaya from Ryokuōshoku Shakai, and JQ from Nulbarich.[11]

2021 also saw the band sing "No.1", the first opening theme of the fifth season of the anime series My Hero Academia,[12] and "Shout It Out", the theme song of the Japanese dub of the film Venom: Let There Be Carnage.[13]
