Ronnie Sundin (born 1944) was a New Zealand teen rock singer of the 1960s. He was paired with Will Jess and his Jesters, one of local label Viking Records' house bands, and aged 16 released Sea of Love ahead of the song reaching No.1 in the US R&B charts.

Another six further singles, all with Will Jess and his Jesters, followed, released together as his sole album.[1][2][3]
