Mudvayne's Greg Tribbett Launches "Dead Wyte"

While Mudvayne is currently on a break, guitarist Greg Tribbett is stepping into a new creative chapter. Tribbett recently revealed the formation of a new group called "Dead Wyte", which features his brother, Derrick Tribbett.

Although the project is in its early stages, Greg has shared several teasers on Instagram to give fans a glimpse of the band's sound. One clip showcases a heavy, aggressive groove featuring gritty guitar work and shouting vocals. Another teaser takes a different approach, utilizing a rhythmic "stomp-clap" style. A third post simply confirms the band's name with the caption, "It's coming."

Greg Tribbett is well-known for his tenure with Mudvayne and the hard rock supergroup Hellyeah, as well as a brief stint with the band Audiotopsy. His brother Derrick - also known as Tripp Lee - brings his own extensive industry experience to the project. Derrick previously served as the lead singer for Twisted Method and worked as a bassist and backing vocalist for Dope. He also appeared on the VH1 reality series "Daisy of Love".

This new venture comes as Mudvayne enters a hiatus for 2026. Lead singer Chad Gray recently announced his own solo tour, focusing on material from his three decades with Mudvayne and Hellyeah. Meanwhile, Greg Tribbett stepped away from Mudvayne's tour last autumn following the loss of his wife to a rare and aggressive form of cancer.

At this time, no other members of "Dead Wyte" have been confirmed. Fans are encouraged to follow Tribbett's social media for further updates on the project's release.
