Annie Booth (born 1989) is an American jazz pianist. At the age of 16 she began formal piano lessons from jazz organist Pat Bianchi. She studied at the Colorado Conservatory for the Jazz Arts and went on to earn a BM in Jazz Studies from the Thompson Jazz Studies Program at the University of Colorado Boulder in 2011.

She was named "Best In Denver (Jazz)" from Westword in 2015[1], 2016[2] and 2017[3]. In 2016, she toured Mexico with the New York Jazz All Stars - Greg Gisbert Quartet (sponsored by Jazz at Lincoln Center) that included musicians Greg Gisbert, Tommy Campbell, and Mike Boone (side artist for Buddy Rich and John Swana). She was awarded the 2017 Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer Award[4], the 2017 ASCAP Foundation Phoebe Jacobs Prize[5], and 2011 Young Composer Honorable Mention[6] by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP). Her trio has performed at the South by Southwest festival in 2017[7] and several Denver jazz clubs including Dazzle Jazz and Nocturne Jazz & Supper Club.
