Maduar založili 1. augusta 1986 v slovenskom meste Rimavská Sobota bratia Juraj a Ladislav Matyinkovci so svojím kamarátom Lacom Dulovičom. Začínali ako pop-rocková kapela tvoriaca vlastný repertoár skladieb. Prvých 8 rokov bolo o hľadaní cesty k úspechu. Potom, čo vyskúšali viacero členov a aj rôzne žánre, skončili pri tanečnej hudbe. Bodom zlomu bol rok 1994, kedy sa bratskej dvojici podarilo presadiť v slovenských rádiách singel I Feel Good, za ktorým nasledovalo vydanie prvého albumu v Čechách a na Slovensku. Ten mal obrovský úspech a Maduar sa stal prvou úspešnou tanečnou kapelou v obidvoch krajinách - zvalcoval rozhlasové a TV hitparády, vyhral takmer všetky ocenenia a získal titul Skupina roka.
Do roku 2000 vyprodukoval 5 albumov (2 z nich aj v Maďarsku) a 1 Best of kompiláciu. Bolo to obdobie splnených snov - Platinové a Zlaté platne, #1 hity, desiatky ocenení a stovky koncertov.
Nasledujúcich 7 rokov strávili bratia Matyinkovci cestovaním a vytváraním medzinárodných vzťahov v hudobnom priemysle. Výsledok stretnutí s hudobnými profesionálmi z celého sveta sa dostavil v roku 2006 - podpísaním zmluvy o vydaní singla Hafanana 2006 v 94 krajinách sveta.
V roku 2007 ohlásil Maduar comeback s albumom 007. Do roku 2011 vydal viacero nových singlov a videoklipov, mnohé z nich sa stali #1 hitmi v Čechách a boli zaradené na medzinárodné kompilácie. Zároveň sa kapela vrátila aj na pódiá a zrealizovala niekoľko koncertných šnúr po celých Čechách a Slovensku v rokoch 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011.
Koncom roka 2011 sa obidvaja bratia rozhodli presťahovať do USA a rozbehnúť nový biznis - cestovnú agentúru. V roku 2014 sa však opäč vrátili aj k hudbe, výsledkom čoho bolo 60 vystúpení v Čechách, na Slovensku a v USA, vrátane účasti na megashow Davida Hasselhoffa pre 12 000 ľudí, či vlastného open air koncertu pre 4 000 ľudí. Kapela pokračovala v koncertnej činnosti aj v rokoch 2015 a 2016.
V týchto dňoch pripravuje pri príležitosti 30. výročia nový koncertný program a špciálne narodeninové aktivity.
