Dick McDonough

Dick McDonough (* 1904 in Chicago; † 25. Mai 1938 in New York City) war ein US-amerikanischer Jazz-Gitarrist und Banjospieler des Oldtime Jazz und des Swing.

Dick McDonough war Ende der 1920er Jahre in Chicago beschäftigt; dort arbeitete er unter anderem mit Red Nichols, später mit Paul Whiteman. Er spielte zunächst Banjo und ging 1929 zur Gitarre über.

McDonough nahm in seiner kurzen Karriere Platten mit Nichols, Bunny Berigan, den Dorsey Brothers (By Heck, Old Man Harlem, 1933), Benny Goodman (I Gotta Right to Sing the Blues, 1933), Miff Mole, Adrian Rollini, Red Norvo, Jack Teagarden, Johnny Mercer, Billie Holiday, Pee Wee Russell, Frank Trumbauer, Glenn Miller, Gene Gifford (New Orleans Twist, 1933), Fats Waller und Joe Venuti, sowie Gitarrenduette mit Carl Kress auf (Danzon und Stage Fright, 1934). Kurz vor seinem Tod entstand 1937 die Jam Session at Victor, die ihn als Solist herausstellt (Honeysuckle Rose, The Blues). Dick McDonough starb an den Folgen von Alkoholismus.
