Este conjunto nació en el año 1968, con la experiencia obtenida por su director manager, Jaime Botey, el cual después de actuar durante ocho años en la Orquesta de Eduardo Gadea, en los Hoteles Hilton de Estambul, Berlín, Cairo, Madrid, Teherán, etc., etc., como arreglador, cantante y pianista, formó su propio grupo, trasladándose a Escandinavia y Centro Europa, por un tiempo de cuatro años, donde refrendó sus métodos de éxito en todos los locales en donde actuó.

Actualmente, afincado en España (y con el grupo que lleva su nombre) «Botey's Quartet» han escalado los peldaños más difíciles de la actualidad, tales como, hacer música de «CONCIERTO MODERNO» (para Banquetes en Hoteles) «MUSICA BEAT» (para la juventud actual) exhibiendo un total de siete instrumentos en sus diversas facetas de interpretación.
