**Mudvayne** is a nu metal band, from United States, active 1996 to present.

Mudvayne is an American heavy metal band formed in Peoria, Illinois, in 1996.

The group consists of lead guitarist Greg Tribbett, drummer Matthew McDonough, lead vocalist Chad Gray, bassist Ryan Martinie and live rhythm guitarist Marcus Rafferty. The band became popular in the late-1990s Peoria underground music scene, and they found success with the single "Dig" from their debut album L.D. 50 (2000).
