Gregory David Kriesel (born January 20, 1965, in Glendale, California), best known by his stage name Greg K., is an American bass guitarist and backing vocalist for the punk band, The Offspring.
Kriesel is one of the founding members of the band alongside Dexter Holland. He plays an Ibanez custom ATK300 bass, and his hobbies include golf and collecting hats. He was on the track and field team in high school along with fellow bandmate Holland, and was also in the Math Club.
On May 28, 2008, Kriesel announced on The Offspring's website that he was taking a hiatus from touring because of a "scheduled family matter" but would be returning to the fold by mid-June. Face to Face bassist Scott Shiflett will be filling in for him on their upcoming shows. He has since been seen at their show in Paris on June 10, 2008.
He currently lives in Cypress, California.
