William "Bill" Reichenbach Jr. (born November 20, 1949 in Takoma Park, Maryland) is an American jazz trombonist and composer. He is the son of Bill Reichenbach who was the drummer for Charlie Byrd from 1962 to 1973. He is best known as a session musician for television, films, cartoons, and commercials.[1] He also recorded a solo CD, "Special Edition", where he is featured on tenor as well as bass trombone.
He began in high school playing for various bands in the Washington, D. C. area. He also sat in with his father's group where he played with Milt Jackson, Zoot Sims, and others. Reichenbach went on to study at the Eastman School of Music and on graduating joined the "Buddy Rich band." He would also work in the Toshiko Akiyoshi – Lew Tabackin Big Band in Los Angeles in the mid/late '70s. After that move he became known for music for television and film.[2]
His first TV or film project of interest might be playing trombone on Michael Jackson's Thriller (music video). He also acted as a composer for Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue.[3]
