Daniel Joseph Donegan (born August 1, 1968) is an American musician who is the guitarist, keyboardist and one of the founding members of heavy metal band Disturbed.

Donegan began playing guitar as a teenager and eventually formed a band called Vandal, which was a 1980s-style glam metal band.[1] He also played with some of the members of Vandal in another band that was called Loudmouth, and has pursued a side project band, Fight or Flight, in collaboration with Disturbed band member Mike Wengren.[2]

Donegan was added to the guitar show Chop Shop's list of "Top 100 Most Complete Guitar Players of All Time" at number 76.[3]
