邁克爾·彼得·巴爾扎里（英語：Michael Peter Balzary，1962年10月16日－）是一位出生在澳大利亚的美国贝斯手、小号演奏家及演员，其艺名Flea更为人熟知。他作为另类摇滚乐队Red Hot Chili Peppers的贝斯手和组建者而出名。他在乐队中的表现融合了几种不同的音乐风格，从疾速的Slap到更柔和而旋律化的手法。除了Red Hot Chili Peppers,他还与很多艺人合作过，包括Jane's Addiction、The Mars Volta及Alanis Morissette.受疯克音乐和朋克摇滚的影响，Flea着重于纯朴而极简的贝斯演奏，视复杂化为应适度运用的技术。 起初作为一个小号演奏天才，Flea中学时从最亲密的朋友即日后Red Hot Chili Peppers的吉他手Hillel Slovak那儿学会了演奏贝斯，当时后者的乐队Anthym正缺一个贝斯手。但加入乐队几个月后Flea便因要加入朋克摇滚乐团Fear而退队。不久他又重新加入Slovak并与中学校友Anthony Kiedis及Jack Irons组建了个临时乐队，这个临时合作最终导致Red Hot Chili Peppers的诞生。Flea在演艺界进行了很多次尝试，参演了各种类型的电影，如《回到未来2》（1989）、《不羁的天空》（1991）和《谋杀绿脚趾》（1998）。
