Greig Andrew Nori (born November 21, 1962) is a Canadian producer and musician from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, and is well known as the frontman, co-lead vocalist and guitarist of the pop punk band Treble Charger. In the late 1990s, he began working as a producer with Sum 41 and was their in-house producer and manager until 2004. In 2007, Greig went back to the studio to produce for the pop punk bands Cauterize and Hedley, for their albums Disguises and Famous Last Words, respectively.

Nori is one of the heads of Bunk Rock Music, a Canadian artist management company. He manages bands including Surplus Sons and the New Cities. He is currently signed as producer by Nettwerk. From 2008 to 2009, Nori was featured as the Musical guru on the show DisBAND.

Sum 41 vocalist Deryck Whibley accused Nori of grooming and sexual abuse in his memoir Walking Disaster published in 2024. According to Whibley, Nori had one requirement as a manager, and that was he wanted total control and the rest of the group could not talk to anyone but him. In his book, Whibley said that when they both attended a rave, Whibley invited him into a bathroom to take ecstasy and when in the stall, Whibley said that that Nori allegedly grabbed and kissed him stating that "many rock stars were queer".[2] When Whibley said he rejected these advances, Nori allgedly got "psychologically and verbally abusive." [2][3] Nori told The Globe and Mail prior to the coverage published online that he had not seen Whibley's book or heard the allegations but said that "These are false allegations," and told the publication's Josh O'Kane, and has retained a defamation lawyer.[4]
