Peter Cincotti, an American singer, pianist, songwriter, and actor, has made a distinct mark in the world of jazz and pop music with his versatile performances and sophisticated musical stylings. Born on July 11, 1983, in New York City, Cincotti displayed a prodigious talent for music from a young age. By the age of seven, he was proficient at the piano and as a teenager, he started making a name for himself in the New York City jazz scene.

Cincotti's eponymous debut album 'Peter Cincotti' released in 2003, when he was only 19, reached No. 1 on the Billboard Traditional Jazz Charts, making him the youngest artist to do so at the time.
