Michael Allen Inez (born May 14, 1966) is an American rock musician and bassist.
Since the late 1980s, his career has consisted of the role of bass guitarist in popular hard rock bands.
He is also recognized for his work with Ozzy Osbourne from 1989 to 1993.

He is of Filipino descent.
Inez has earned seven Grammy Award nominations as a member of Alice in Chains.
Mike Inez began his career in music by playing guitar and saxophone.
In 1989, more than 50 musicians auditioned for Ozzy Osbourne's group, and Inez, then a member of the local L.A. band Skin on Skin, won the spot of bassist.
Within a month, Inez was playing live at a gig with Osbourne at Wembley Stadium.
Inez was an official member of Osbourne's band during their recording of the No More Tears album.
However, Bob Daisley was brought in to record the bass and none of Inez's playing is on the final album.
In the liner notes Inez was credited as "bass and music inspiration," as he had written the riff to the title track in a jam session.
Since 1993, Inez has been the bassist of the American rock band Alice in Chains.
Inez also appeared on the 1993 Osbourne live album, Live & Loud.
By January 1993 Inez had moved on to his next project.
Alice in Chains bassist Mike Starr had left the group after the release of their album Dirt and Inez replaced him.
Inez toured throughout 1993 with Alice in Chains on the strength of the Dirt album.
The group also participated in the 1993 Lollapalooza Tour.
Alice in Chains' Jar of Flies EP was released in 1994 with Inez on bass.
Jar of Flies debuted at #1 on album sales charts, the first EP ever to do so.
Inez recorded with the band for their eponymous 1995 release Alice in Chains, which also debuted at #1.
In 1995, Inez played with Slash on the Guns N' Roses guitarist's side group, Slash's Snakepit.

In 1997 Inez played with his Alice in Chains bandmate, Jerry Cantrell, on his debut solo album, Boggy Depot.
In the following year, Inez played on the bonus track to Black Label Society's debut album Sonic Brew, a reworked heavy metal cover version of the Osbourne track "No More Tears".
They released the microfish EP, and played radio festivals in the Northwest.
Then in August 1998 Alice in Chains returned to the studio to release the songs "Get Born Again" and "Died".
In 1999 the band went on hiatus once again, when rumors of vocalist Layne Staley's drug abuse arose.
