Arto Lindsay

Arto Lindsay (Arthur Morgan Lindsay, born 1953 in Virginia) is an American guitarist, singer, producer and experimental composer who grew up in Brazil, where his parents were missionaries in Pernambuco. He came to notice in the late 1970s no wave scene with the trio DNA, playing a self-taught guitar built on unconventional techniques, and later mixed that sound with samba, bossa nova and pop, sung in a soft voice. Lindsay formed DNA with Ikue Mori and Robin Crutchfield (later replaced by Tim Wright), and the band appeared on the Brian Eno-produced No New York (1978).
