Lynval Golding (born 24 July 1951, Saint Catherine, Jamaica) is an English musician. He is best known as a rhythm guitarist and vocalist with the British 2 Tone Records band, The Specials.

He went on to co-found the Fun Boy Three with Terry Hall and Neville Staple. Recently he was touring with the English Beat, a reunion version of another second wave ska band, and has started a newer band, Stiff Upper Lips, which is playing more frequently in the Seattle, Washington area USA.

In 2007 he appeared live at the Glastonbury Festival in the UK, on the Pyramid Stage with Lily Allen (and fellow Specials / Fun Boy Three band member Terry Hall). He also played on the Park Stage, once again with Terry Hall and also Blur frontman Damon Albarn and beatboxer Shlomo, playing a version of Specials classic "A Message To You Rudy".

On Saturday 28th August 2007 Lynval appeared with current band Pama International at the Dunstaffnage music festival near Oban, Scotland. A fantastic set was rounded off with an awe inspiring rendition off 'a message to you Rudy'. A feature off the festival was that every band was captured in a painting whilst performing. The Pama International painting featured the on-stage wisdom of Lynval, displaying his words from the stage to a police officer outside the tent: "Come in, come in. Come in from the cold."
