Book Me


To listen to some of the bands I play in, check out the “My Music” page.

My latest projects are the Geoff Atherton Quartet playing modern jazz and Latin combo Rio Revisited featuring vocalist Francesca (Check out the groups’ Facebook pages).

The Atherton/Key Duo is  particularly popular where space is limited, and the venue is looking for some easy-listening, sophisticated dinner-jazz. I currently enjoy a residency at the Booth Wood Inn in Rishworth.

If you are interested in hiring any of my bands please phone me on
