Rotational structures in ¹⁵⁶Dy have been populated with the ¹⁴⁸Nd (¹²C, 4n) ¹⁵⁶Dy reaction at 65 MeV and the resulting γ-ray transitions observed with Gammasphere. The even- and odd-spin members of the K^π=2⁺ γ-band are observed to 32⁺ and 31⁺ respectively and the members of a possible γ-vibration built on the aligned S-band are observed to spins 28⁺ and 27⁺. An even-spin positive-parity band, observed to spin 24⁺, is a candidate for an aligned S-band built on the seniority-zero configuration of the 0₂ ⁺ state at 676 keV.
