Two-Time Blues Music Award Winner
Grammy-Nominated Pianist
Internationally Acclaimed Blues Artist
When it comes to world-class blues piano, Anthony Geraci is the real deal. A two-time Blues Music Award winner, Grammy-nominated recording artist, and internationally acclaimed performer, Geraci has spent more than four decades bringing his extraordinary keyboard artistry to stages around the globe. His unmistakable blend of deep-rooted blues, boogie-woogie, and jazz-infused sophistication has made him one of the most respected pianists on today's blues scene.
A 2021 and 2023 Blues Music Award winner for Instrumentalist–Piano (the prestigious Pinetop Perkins Piano Award), Geraci has earned an astounding 19 individual Blues Music Award nominations, along with a Grammy nomination for Super Harps I (Telarc). His powerhouse ensemble, Anthony Geraci & The Boston Blues All-Stars, has also received three Blues Music Award nominations for Band of the Year.
Geraci's musical pedigree reads like a who's who of blues royalty. Over his remarkable career, he has toured with legends including Otis Rush, Hubert Sumlin, J.B. Hutto, Big Walter Horton, and Big Joe Turner, and has backed such iconic performers as Chuck Berry, John Lee Hooker, and Big Mama Thornton. He has even had the rare privilege of sharing the stage with Muddy Waters and B.B. King.
His extensive recording credits are equally impressive, featuring collaborations with Odetta, Charlie Musselwhite, John Primer, Duke Robillard, Kenny Neal, Billy Branch, Carey Bell, Lazy Lester, Snooky Pryor, Debbie Davies, and countless others. A longtime member of celebrated blues ensembles including Ronnie Earl & The Broadcasters, Sugar Ray & The Bluetones, and The Proven Ones, Geraci has built an international reputation for exceptional musicianship and an authentic connection to the blues tradition.
Continuing his extraordinary recording career, Geraci's latest album, Where Were You, arrived on the legendary Delmark Records label in September 2026. The recording features an outstanding lineup of blues talent, including Sheryl Youngblood, Dave Specter, Anne Harris, Rodrigo Mantovani, Pooky Styx of Buddy Guy's band, Jon McDonald, and members of The Boston Blues All-Stars.
Critics have taken notice. Switzerland's Jazz 'n' More describes Geraci's music as:
"Solid as a Rock! Melodic. Deeply rooted in black music."
And in a four-star review, DownBeat magazine recognized his rise to international acclaim, noting his emergence from the Boston-Providence blues scene into the global spotlight.
For festivals, concert venues, and blues audiences looking for an artist with impeccable credentials, extraordinary musical depth, and decades of international performance experience, Anthony Geraci delivers an authentic, first-class blues experience.
“Solid as a Rock! Melodic. Deeply rooted in black music. This is what springs to mindwhen you hear the name Anthony Geraci."

TESTIMONIALS
"Anthony Geraci has long been part of the bedrock of the Boston-Providence blues scene. In recent years, he has stepped out of the seaside shadows into the limelight of international acclaim, largely on the strength of feature albums.”
FRANK-JOHN HADLEY, DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE (four star review)
"Anthony Geraci is the kind of musician whose playing carries history without sounding trapped by it. His piano can drive a boogie, settle deep into a slow blues or open the door to jazzier territory...(his latest recordings are) rich in melody, expressive playing and songwriting built around real emotional weight”.
BLUES MAGAZINE, THE NETHERLANDS
"Anthony Geraci is a beast on all levels and may well be the finest keyboardist in roots music today.”
MIKE O'CULL, ROCK & BLUES MUSE
