When he heard that were looking for a new keyboarder after the break-up with Daniel Haglund, he immediately applied for the job.
Two months later he was accepted. According to Gustaf Norén it was silly that he didn"t think of him in the first place, as they had grown up together in the same street, and had even been schoolmates.
Officially Mats wasn"t a band member in the beginning. The band even temporarily announced that being a four-piece (Gustaf Norén, Björn Dixgård, Carl-Johan Fogelklou, Samuel Giers) worked out much better.
