Moon Ray

**Moon Ray**, also known as **Raggio Di Luna**, is the cool Italo disco project from the '80s cooked up by Italian producers **Aldo Martinelli** and **Fabrizio Gatto**, with singers **Simona Zanini** handling the vocals (like on their massive hit "Comanchero") and **Mandy Ligios** bringing the dancer energy and stage presence.

Their breakout track "Comanchero" (1984) was a total banger across Europe, hitting #3 in Germany, #2 in Austria, #4 in Switzerland, and #5 in France, followed by fun follow-ups like "Viva" (1985) and "Tornado Shout" (1986). Mandy, a French-Italian performer born around 1961, rocked the Native American-inspired looks in videos and TV spots, while the project kept the disco vibes alive with later re-releases and albums like *Halo* and *Tranze-Send Dance*.
