The 100 Club presents

RAY GELATO & HIS GIANTS

Ray 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, and lots of places in between.

Gathering more fans with every passing year, Ray's audience includes young children and grown up kids alike, for the simple reason that his joyful music lifts everyone who hears it - a rare gift in these often cynical times.

Ray and his world class band The Giants deliver a high energy show that never fails to get a crowd on its feet, stomping its collective feet and demanding more. As a result, Ray has been compared to such greats as Cab Calloway and Louis Prima. In fact, he's been called 'one of the last great jazz entertainers'!

Description

The most celebrated live music venue in Europe and one of the most famous in the world. Our longevity is due to an open minded music policy which has seen many different musical styles performed at this venue over It's long history.

Live music began at 100 Oxford Street on 24th October 1942. It was first played at Mack's restaurant (as it was then known) when British jazz drummer Victor Feldman's father hired the venue on a regular Sunday night to showcase the talents of his jazz loving sons and their band. The band consisted of Victor and his two brothers Robert on clarinet and Monty on accordion. They were joined by legendary British saxophonist Jimmy Skidmore for the opening night.
