This has been showcased in his recent work with the immersive and visceral live rock/film show Gutteredammerung, during which he worked with the likes of Grace Jones and Henry Rollins. Prior to joining Iggy Pop, Mat worked with Thomas Dolby for a number of years, completing a number of US and world tours. He also recorded on his last studio album "A Map Of The Floating City" as well the live album "Thomas Dolby - Live in Tokyo" and appeared with Thomas on the anniversary edition of "The Old Grey Whistle Test".
