Mr. Quintron, aka Quintron is a concert and nightclub organist who lives in New Orleans Louisiana's 9th ward. Quintron invented his own instrument, the Drum Buddy, a mechanically-rotating, five-oscillator, light-activated drum machine.

He normally plays the organ, situated atop the front end of a car. The car's license plate reads "MR-Q".

Quintron is also known for his eccentric behavior, once attending a press interview in a wheelchair and claiming he fell off of a roller coaster.

He performs with his wife, musician and puppeteer, Miss Panacea Pussycat, co-founder of the 9th ward's now defunct Pussycat Caverns.

Born in Germany, he attended high school in St. Louis before moving to Chicago at the age of seventeen, where he created the club Milk of Burgundy. His website claims he left Chicago due to "^*roubles with law".

His current club, the Spellcaster Lodge, was severely damaged by Hurricane Katrina, but is expected to re-open after repairs.
