Matt Bellamy | Tomorrow’s World”

Bellamy decided to take a break from Muse to focus on other projects after the band’s huge world tour for their studio album, Simulation Theorym, last year. He was recently featured on the Game Of Thrones soundtrack with “Pray (High Valyrian)” and last month joined the Jaded Hearts Club Band to release their most recent single, “This Starved Heart of Mine (It’s Killing Me) in April and Nobody But Me in March.
