MikeBellMaps | Mike Bell Music Map Maker - Tube Music Maps

I’m Mike Bell. I design intricate, tube-style maps that reimagine the journeys of bands, films, and cultural moments.

Each transforms studio discographies, film plots, or political histories into visual timelines, where musicians, characters, and ideas travel like lines on a transit map.

This one-person project began during lockdown, as both a creative lifeline and a way for me to face Parkinson’s with purpose.

With a background in live music and show design, I now channel that energy into hand-drawing every map, line by line.

These aren’t just art prints. They’re immersive, data-driven stories—made for anyone who wants to see culture differently.
