The Godfather of Swing Mr Ray Gelato has been taking his special brand of swing, jazz and R&B music all over the world since 1988. This multi-talented singer, saxman, songwriter and band leader has appeared at festivals, clubs and concert stages from Brazil to New York City. 

The legendary Ray Gelato and his band have had an illustrious and very successful career, including a long-established residency at London's world-famous Ronnie Scott's, where the band appears every Christmas. This must-see event is always a sell-out.
