Tony Ann is a virtuoso solo pianist who seamlessly blends contemporary and classical styles. A harmony connoisseur, he pushes the boundaries of neoclassical and popular music, crafting emotionally rich compositions that explore the full range of the piano’s 88 keys.
With over 1 billion views, 300 million streams, and more than 6 million followers, Tony has captivated a global audience and inspired a new generation through his viral “#playthatword” series and his acclaimed EP trilogy—EMOTIONALLY BLUE, ORANGE, and RED—released with Decca Records France (Universal Music Group). His album 360 further showcases the breadth and depth of his artistry. He is also widely recognized for his songwriting with The Chainsmokers, co-writing the U.S. platinum singles “Sick Boy” and “Call You Mine.”
Tony recently celebrated the 100th concert of his world tour, which continues to sell out venues across the globe—from Helsinki to Kuala Lumpur, Chicago to Melbourne, São Paulo to Bilbao. In 2024, he received multiple standing ovations at sold-out performances in prestigious venues such as the Olympia in Paris and the Barbican in London. He will soon become only the third Western artist—after Ibrahim Maalouf and Jacob Collier (both Grammy-nominated)—to perform at Mumbai’s prestigious NMACC, one of the most stunning concert halls in India.
On October 17, 2025, Tony is the only featured guest on global icon Lang Lang’s new album Piano Book 2, joining him for a four-hands performance of Tony’s own “ICARUS.” The single has surpassed 50 million streams (excluding France) and earned diamond certification, cementing its impact worldwide. In recognition of his rising influence, Tony was nominated for Breakthrough Artist or Group of the Year at the 2025 JUNO Awards.
Looking ahead, Tony makes a major return to Europe’s most beautiful stages in 2026 with a new live production featuring the genre-blending violin-cello duo ARKAI, collaborators on orchestral versions of his emblematic pieces. Praised by the press—Les Échos called him “the new piano star”—Tony Ann continues to expand his musical universe while forging a singular path in contemporary piano music.
