Pianist, Hammond organist and composer Anthony Geraci was born in New Haven, CT in 1954. His interest in playing piano began at age four when he told his parents "I want a piano!" His parents weren't musical -not even a record player at their house- but they always supported his undeniable passion for music. He graduated from the Berklee College of Music with B.A. Degree, and a M.A. from Skidmore College.
Geraci's discography includes recordings with Big Walter Horton, Ronnie Earl, Big Jack Johnson, Zora Young, Sugaray Rayford, Debbie Davies, Kenny Neal and many more renowned Blues Artists. Throughout his career, he has performed with titans of the genre, including Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Otis Rush, Chuck Berry, Big Mama Thornton, Big Joe Turner and Jimmy Rogers.
His critically-acclaimed 2015 release, 'Fifty Shades of Blue,' (Delta Groove Records) earned multiple Blues Music Award nominations (Best Song, Best Album, and Best Traditional Blues Album. It was ranked as one of the top 50 Blues recordings of 2015 by Living Blues Magazine, and earned a 4 Star Review in Downbeat Magazine.
In 2019, 'Why Did You Have To Go' (Shining Stone) received Blues Music Award nominations for Album of the Year, Traditional Album of the Year, Song of the Year ("Angelina, Angelina"), as well as individual nominations: Pinetop Perkins Piano Award, Traditional Male Blues Artist and Band of the Year: an unprecedented six personal nominations!
