The house was previously destroyed in a fire in November 2015, which destroyed all but a few mementos of Mathis’ property.

More than 40 firefighters were deployed to put out the fire, which caused the roof of the house to collapse.

Mathis was returning to Los Angeles at the time after playing a show in Cleveland and told reporters at the time he was grateful no one was hurt in the fire.

“I’m fine, nobody got hurt – that’s always important – we can always substitute things,” he told KTLA5. “I’m a very lucky man, I could have been here, I could have been in bed. “I’m very happy, a little bit sad of course, but very happy.”
