Substances that conduct heat are called good conductors of heat and electricity. Most metals fall in this category. In any case, if the average kinetic energy of the molecules in the substance can be increased by adding heat to the system then it will conduct heat.

A musical conductor conducts mainly to keep the orchestra synchronized and to add some of their own stylistic preferences. An electrical conductor conducts because its molecules don't hold onto their electrons so tightly and are able to get "hit" by electrons and use the force to hit other molecules with its own electrons. That way, the force of one electron gets relayed throughout the conductor with relative efficiency.
