Michael Douglas Henry Kroeger or simply Mike Kroeger (born June 25, 1972, Hanna, Alberta, Canada) is the bass guitarist for the band Nickelback. He is the half-brother of Chad Kroeger, Nickelback's front man.

When performing Mike uses 5-string basses as needed for the band's songs. On one of his basses a letter "M" is visible on the fretboard in the "If Everyone Cared" music video. Mike uses Spector and Lakland electric bass guitars.

Mike was the first band member to get married and start a family. His wife and children often tour with the band.
