Mad Machinery began in the late 90's as a one-man operation based out of Westchester, NY.
Multi-instrumentalist Dino Covelli teamed up with SUNY Oneonta classmate, Ed Roddy (singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist). The two composed, recorded, produced, and released the LP, "Reconnecting" themselves in 2004.
They were joined by fellow alumni Dan Papandrea (guitar), and friends Akil James (drums) and Adam Colangelo (keyboards) to promote the album for a series of live shows until late 2005.
