Norridge Bryant Mayhams (August 17, 1903 – July 22, 1988) was an American singer, songwriter, bandleader, and record producer, whose recordings between the 1930s and 1980s covered a wide range of genres including jazz, gospel, R&B, and novelty songs.
He used a variety of performing names, most notably Norris the Troubadour, and released many of his recordings on his own independent record labels.
His best known song as a writer, "We'll Build a Bungalow", was a chart hit for Johnny Long in 1950, and was performed by Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz in I Love Lucy.
According to one source, "Mayhams authored a body of work that is staggering in its scope, quality and general strangeness."
