Gianfranco Randone (Italian pronunciation: [dʒaɱˈfraŋko ranˈdoːne]; born 5 January 1970), known by his stage name Jeffrey Jey, is an Italian-American musician and singer-songwriter, best known as the lead vocalist of the group Eiffel 65[1] (1997–2005, 2010–present). He was also the lead singer of the groups Bliss Team (1992–1997) and Bloom 06 (2005–2010). After Eiffel 65's reunion in June 2010, he toured[2] Italy and Europe with the band. In addition to singing, Jey also plays bass guitar, electric guitar, drums and keyboards.

Jey's father moved his family from Sicily to Brooklyn, New York in 1972[3] and returned to Italy in 1984. Due to his father being a musician and these twelve years spent growing up in New York he also became interested in becoming a musician due to all the influences throughout the city. He is fluent in both English and Italian.
