Martin Joseph "Marty" Grebb (born September 2, 1946 in Chicago, Illinois, United States) is an American keyboardist, guitarist, saxophonist, and is also a music producer and an arranger who has worked with musicians such as Bill Payne, Bonnie Raitt, Eric Clapton, Etta James, and Leon Russell.

Marty Grebb was born and raised in Chicago. He began studying music after his eighth birthday. His early interest in music can be attributed to his father, Harry, who was a saxophonist and played in the big-band era, both on the roads and in the clubs of Chicago. However, Marty chose piano as his first instrument, turning to saxophone only two years later.

In 1966, a local band, The Buckinghams, required the services of a keyboardist, and Marty Grebb was asked to team up with them. Around this time, the band members were introduced to James William Guercio, a former bassist and road manager for Chad & Jeremy who found them a management contract with Ebbins-Guercio Associates. The band went on to have six top-ten national selling singles and three top twenty albums with Marty Grebb for Columbia Records.
