Petros Anagnostakis was a Greek Laiko singer.

He was born in 1933 in a poor section of Piraeus and started his recording career in 1959. Of special note was his partnership with Roula Kalaki - at a time when male-female partnerships were in style in Greek music - which produced many fine songs.

Owing to his good looks, Anagnostakis also appeared in several Greek films singing his songs.

He died on June 1, 1995 of cancer.
