Dan Peek (born 1 November 1950, Panama City, Florida; died 24 July 2011, Farmington, Missouri) was a member of the rock band America from 1970 to 1977, together with Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell. He contributed lead and backing vocals, guitars, bass, keyboards, and harmonica to their recordings during his tenure in the band. Later he found success as a pioneering artist in the emerging Christian pop music genre.
Peek left America shortly after the February 1977 release of the Harbor album. He renewed his Christian faith after years of unhappy recreational drug use and a fast lifestyle, and had begun to seek a different artistic direction than Beckley or Bunnell.
