About Me

The Black Lines is the solo-project of Seattle-based artist and musician Matt Neyens.

I won't be stopping by here much anymore. The page will stay live for the time being, but I won't be getting messages or anything. Please come and visit me at the Black Lines' new facebook page. I'll have music up there soon. Love to see you there.
