Chad Gray - Vocals Ray Martinie - Bass Gregg Tribbett - Guitar Matthew McDonough - Drums
Straight out of Peoria, Illinois the group Mudvayne formed in 1996 with members Chad Gray (vocals), Gregg Tribbett (guitar), and Mathew McDonough (drums). Ryan Martinie (Bass) replaced the groups original bass two years later. With nicknames in check, Spag (McDonough), Gurrg (Tibbett), Kud (Gray), Ryknow (Martinie), and Garish makeup Mudvayne's hardcore presence became known after their self released album, Kill, I Oughta.
Shortly after the debut of their first album Mudvayne was signed to Epic Records for a major label release of their album L.D. 50 in 2000. With two million albums sold worldwide recognition for the group could not be denied. The album, going on gold in the U.S., notably lead the group to nab the first ever MTV 2 Video Award at the 2001 VMA's. While touring show after show Mudvayne splashed across the covers of Rolling Stone, Newsweek, Maxim, Spin, World and many other publications.
In 2002 Mudvayne recorded The End of All Things to Come with Tool producer David Bottrill. Touring heavily in Europe in 2002, to promote the album, the band slipped back on home turf just long enough to join the "Summer Sanitarium" tour with rock royalty such as Metallica and Lincoln Park. The year 2005 brought about the release of the third album Lost and Found, and oh yes, we are feeling happy now!
