David Perry Lindley (March 21, 1944 – March 3, 2023) was a multi-instrumentalist who founded the bands Kaleidoscope and El Rayo-X.

Lindsey played a wide range of instruments including the guitar, bass, banjo, violin/fiddle, steel guitar, zither, oud, charango, gumbus, cittern, bouzoui, cümbüş hardingfele, and bağlama to name just a few. He passed away on March 3, 2023 at the age of 78 after a long period of ill health.
