Big Trouble Recording

Big Trouble is a recording studio located in the heart of Little Five Points, Atlanta, GA. Owned and operated by Daniel Gleason (Producer, Musician) and TJ Elias (Engineer, Mixer, Producer). After years of working in well respected studios, the two decided it was time to open their own shop! At the end of 2018, Big Trouble was born in Atlanta, GA, one of the most creative and culturally diverse cities in the U.S. The main focus for starting Big Trouble was not only to make great sounding records, but to create a strong community of like minded, passionate people, and give them a place to fully be themselves.
