ESAURITO / SOLD OUT

Valentine Day with Ray Gelato & The Giants

An infectious, spectacular, irresistible mixture that has made the fortune of the English saxophonist and singer, who has long been much loved, not only in his homeland, for his friendliness and verve, as well as for impeccable musical performances.

More than anyone else, Ray Gelato is the one who has successfully rediscovered the more disenchanted spirit of much of the music in vogue in the 1940s and 1950s: especially live, he and his band draw the audience into a kind of collective ritual of the healthiest and most invigorating fun. This is also thanks to influences and songs ranging from Nat King Cole to Frank Sinatra, from Cole Porter to Louis Prima, from Sammy Davis Jr. to Louis Jordan, without forgetting milestones of the Italian tradition, especially Neapolitan. In Ray Gelato’s style and aesthetics, references to Buscaglione, Carosone, Rabagliati and Natalino Otto are indeed very clear.

Ray and his Giants play a mixture of swing, jazz and R&B that are unmistakably the band’s own style. This, combined with Ray’s fun and original songs, makes for an unforgettable evening that will leave you wanting more!
