Lars Gullin (May 4, 1928 – May 17, 1976) was a Swedish jazz baritone saxophone player, occasional pianist and composer closest in playing style to United States Cool school players, with a full tone, but also a lightness uncommon with baritone saxophonists and an influence from Swedish folk music, which helps make his music unique. He recorded with James Moody, Zoot Sims and Clifford Brown and toured several European countries with Chet Baker.
His son, Peter Gullin was also a baritone saxophonist and composer.
