Robin Eubanks (b. October 25, 1955 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) is an American jazz slide trombonist.

The brother of guitarist Kevin Eubanks and trumpeter Duane Eubanks, Robin first appeared on the jazz scene in 1980, playing with Slide Hampton, Sun Ra, and Stevie Wonder. Robin also played with the jazz drummer Art Blakey in his band, the Jazz Messengers, and performed and recorded extensively with drummer/composer Bobby Previte. He was a contributor on fellow jazz trombonist Steve Turre's 2003 release One4J: Paying Homage to J.J. Johnson. Eubanks has also released several albums as a bandleader.

Currently, Robin plays with double bassist Dave Holland's quintet, newly formed septet, and big band. He teaches at New York University with other prominent jazz musicians including guitarist John Scofield and tenor saxophonist Chris Potter. He also teaches full time at Oberlin Conservatory in Ohio. Robin is the newest member to the all star group, the SFJAZZ Collective, where his band mates include Eric Harland, Joe Lovano, Dave Douglas, Miguel Zenon, Stefon Harris, Renee Rosnes, and Matt Penman.

He is one of the pioneers of M Base, a musical concept he pioneered with other musicians such as Steve Coleman and Greg Osby (among others).
