Chris Lindsey is an American country music songwriter and record producer. He is the husband of Aimee Mayo, with whom he has written several songs. The two own Aimeeland Studios.

Lindsey's production credits include the number 1 hits "I Breathe In, I Breathe Out" by Chris Cagle and "19 Somethin'" by Mark Wills. Other artists for whom he has produced include Jimmy Wayne, Aaron Lines, Rachel Proctor, Can You Duet winners Caitlin & Will, and American Idol season 9 finalist Casey James. He also produced Kellie Pickler's self-titled second album and co-wrote five songs on it.

One of his first writing credits was Lonestar's 1999 single "Amazed", which at the time was the first song in 18 years to chart at number 1 on both Hot Country Songs and the Billboard Hot 100. He also co-wrote the song's followup, "Smile", which was at number 1 on the country charts while "Amazed" topped the Hot 100. "Amazed" received Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI) awards for over 5 million spins on radio, plus a Song of the Year award from the same association. It was also the top country song of 1999 according to Billboard Year-End. Lindsey's songs have appeared in the television series Ghost Whisperer and Eli Stone.

Another one of Lindsey's songs, "This One's for the Girls" by Martina McBride, peaked at number 3 on the country charts and number 1 on Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks. In 2011, it was chosen as a theme for the TV series The View.
