Mad Conductor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mad Conductor is an experimental hip hop band fronted by MC Devlin (Chris Tray) and with production by MC Kinney (Dan McKinney).[1] Their sound mixes hip-hop with a wide array of styles, in a unique and often experimental way.[2]

The band formed in 2005 after Devlin's former band, hardcore outfit No Cash, broke up.[3][4][5] Originally from Center Valley, Pennsylvania, the band relocated to New Orleans in 2008.[4]

In 2012 the band successfully raised funds on Kickstarter to record a full-length album titled MC Rises.[6]

They are currently back in Pennsylvania, recording and releasing new music on a regular basis while keeping up with ongoing gigs in the north east.
