Grieg Nori, producer and musician from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada, is well known as the former frontman, lead vocalist and guitarist of the pop punk and indie rock band Treble Charger. Greig disbanded Treble Charger in February 2006.
In the late 1990s he began working as a producer with Sum 41. Until 2004 he was the in-house producer for the band and also their manager. Greig was the long-time musical mentor for Deryck Whibley and he was heavily involved along with him in songwriting, especially in their album All Killer No Filler. In that album he recorded guitar in the songs "Handle This", "Pain For Pleasure" and also provided backing vocals on "Motivation" and "In Too Deep". In early 2005 the band and Greig parted ways and he stopped managing and producing for the band.
Nori is one of the heads of Bunk Rock Music, a Canadian artist management company. He manages bands including Broken Social Scene, Gob, Surplus Sons (who was No Warning). Greig has also produced records for Iggy Pop and Autopilot Off. He is currently signed as producer by Nettwerk.
Since the creation of Bunk Rock, Greig has been in a very close relationship with Sony-BMG and EMI in Canada, in fact many of his Canadian-managed bands are under one of these record labels.
