Hey there! If you here because you saw us play at last weekend's Surfer Joe Festival well thanks for visiting! We had an amazing time in Livorno and everything just rocked. The music, the people, the sun, the drinks, Lorenzo, Niki etc. etc. Good times! Here's a few pics from our show Saturday night.

We now have a final master of the forthcoming album - 'Chasing Ray'! Copenhagen release party in August but more on that later on. Next gig just confirmed. We're playing at Lades on June 5th and we plan to play some of the new songs from the album. It's gonna be superlicious!

Good El Ray news all over place! We finished recording the new album last week. It's produced by Swedish meatball Carl Granberg and he's also going to mix the album during the next couple of weeks. We've been very thrilled working with Carl so far and he has without doubt brought something fresh and new to the sound and feel of El Ray. We really hope you'll like it because we love it!

The album 'Chasing Ray' will be released just prior to our Saturday night gig at the Surfer Joe Festival in Livorno on June 26th. Before that we'll play a couple of private secret gigs to get the waves crashing in.

Speaking of waves or, ermmm, Oklahoma waves...new endorsement guitar hits the band and long time Mosrite lover and player El Twang. Check out the Press Release here.

Hey! Look below. Pics from last month's recording session in Sweden where we laid down the basic tracks for 12 songs in 4 days. We'll get back into the studio in April and do some more recording. With a little luck this gem is ready and due around June/July. That's all you'll get for now.

We're currently featured on SPIN EARTH and that's mighty cool! This comes just right before this weekend's album recording session in Sweden - which we'll tell you all about after it's done. You can also check out the video below. Done by Alex Archimbaud.

YESYESYES! We're going to Sweden, February 19 - 22, to record the new awesome album! It has been a while and for the first time in Ray history - we're actually gonna record tunes we haven't played at live shows - as in EVER before! Already fans are telling us how all this reminds them of Christmas... Thanks!



As if that was not enough, we are just confirmed to play at the SurferJoe Festival 2010, Livorno, Italy, June 24 - 27. We will play Saturday night, main stage, right before Los Straitjackets! And also Sunday!

The 2010 is already the best ever!

Finally. Welcome to the new webpage! It's pretty simple but solid. Check out the different links.

Next gig coming up on December 5th in Lund, Sweden. We are playing the Retro Blaster Xmas Bash in Mejeriet. Don't miss out on this. Rumor says the tickets are going fast.

We are working pretty hard these days with the new batch of songs that'll end up on the new El Ray album. We plan to record late January next year.
