==Early days==
Mathews began his professional music career very young.〔 At 15 he got his first break playing with American blues musician Elvin Bishop at San Francisco's legendary Fillmore Auditorium. Too young to drive, he rode with his older band members to Hollywood to 'get a record deal' and walked up and down Sunset Blvd., stopping at every company with the words 'music' or 'records' in its name. Barry White was the one person to let them in and play their live cassette recording. White's only comment came after he stopped the tape to ask who the drummer was - Mathews raised his hand, prompting a deep-toned "right on" from White. Returning to Sacramento, Mathews soon met Steve Perry and began writing songs with a plan to return to LA to record a proper demo with their new band, Ice. They recorded their original material at The Record Plant during the day while Stevie Wonder recorded his classic Talking Book in the same room by night. Wonder heard the drums on the Ice project and asked Mathews if he could use his old Gretsch kit that was set up and proceeded to play drums on the smash Superstition while simultaneously singing a vocal (without any musical accompaniment). Ice's project was not so fortunate as the funding ran out before Perry's vocals were completed and unfortunately was never released. At age 17, with eight years of playing in bands, a costly unfinished group recording under his belt, Mathews decided to focus on songwriting and learning to read and write music on a number of musical instruments. The recording studio represented endless possibilities and creativity whereas bands meant the same four or five guys playing the same songs and less growth opportunity.
