Paul Tanner

Paul Tanner has lived a full and successful life in music. As a young trombone player, Paul was hired by Glenn Miller for the famed leader’s popular dance band. In fact, every gig, recording, and movie that the band appeared in, Paul was there! Paul played with the band for the last time right before Miller left to lead the Army Air Force Band. After the war, Paul turned his interest to music education and taught at UCLA for over 30 years. He continued to play throughout the 1950s and 60s, making notable recordings such as playing the Theremin on the Beach Boy hit “Good Vibration” and countless studio recordings.
