Murray McEachern (August 16, 1915 – April 28, 1982) was a Canadian jazz trombonist and alto saxophonist, perhaps best known for having played trombone for Benny Goodman from 1936 to 1937.
McEachern studied the violin at the Toronto Conservatory of Music as a boy, and played his first concert recital at Massey Hall at age 12.
As a teenager Murray studied both the saxophone and clarinet, playing with Lucio Agostini and also appearing on CRBC with Percy Faith.
In 1936, he went to Chicago in search of work, and got a break as soloist on trombone for Benny Goodman's big band.
In 1941, McEachern joined the Paul Whiteman orchestra[2] and shortly after began entertaining U.S. troops during World War II.
