The Lt. Dan Band, founded by actor and humanitarian Gary Sinise in 2003, is a cover band known for its energetic performances and support for those who have heroically served including military, veterans, first responders and their families. Named after Sinise’s iconic character Lt. Dan Taylor in the Academy Award-winning film Forrest Gump, which recently celebrated its 30th anniversary on July 6, the band boosts morale on military bases at home and abroad and raises awareness at benefit concerts across the country.
