Little Labs was founded in 1988 by me, Jonathan Little.

In my teenage years in the ‘70s, I learned basic electronics in my Father’s lab at Stanford University and became passionate about rock n roll.

I became further involved in the Palo Alto music scene in high school and then took a course in music, recording, & electronics at College for Recording Arts in San Francisco. Then I headed south to Los Angeles, looking for a recording studio.
