Ann Beretta was an Americanpunk rock band fromRichmond, Virginia. Formed in 1996^[1] by Rob Huddleston, Leer Baker, Chris Rupp and Russ Jones (Baker and Rupp later left), the band plays straightforward punk with small doses ofrockabilly andcountry mixed into their sound.

The band spent several years on tour playing with bands includingHot Water Music,ALL,The Bouncing Souls,Less Than Jake and city-matesAvail. They have released albums onFueled by Ramen andLookout! Records. However, after their 2001 releaseNew Union Old Glory, they left Lookout! to release their next album on with Canadian labelUnion Label Group. In late 2004, Ann Beretta disbanded until 2012, when they toured Europe and the UK in support ofWild, Young, and Free – an LP released exclusively in Europe by Gunnar Records and made up of demos and outtakes. Since then, the band has only played occasional festival dates or local shows in their hometown of Richmond, Virginia.

In 2017 Ann Beretta released the album,Old Scars New Blood, a collection of re-recorded songs that spanned the band's career, representing each album previously released. In 2020 the band planned to record their first album of new material since 2003. The band played their final show, in Richmond, in June 2023.
