ABOUT

Founded in 1999, Big Hassle Media is the brainchild of seasoned label publicists Ken Weinstein (Astralwerks, Atlantic Records, Mercury Records) and Jim Merlis (Columbia Records, Geffen Records). We are a bi-coastal publicity firm of 14 employees devoted to crafting media campaigns that allow our clients (ranging from A-List to emerging) to cut through the noise and rise to the top of entertainment media. A core belief of our tight-knit agency is developing authentic, strong and personal relationships with the press as well as with our clients to ensure we meet every objective we set out to achieve.
