Trans Continental Records

Trans Continental Records (legal name: "Trans Continental Records, Inc."), or "Trans Con", as it is often referred to by the general public at large, is an American record label based in Orlando, Florida (USA) that releases music worldwide, mostly from younger recording artists who work in the genre of Pop. The label was founded in Orlando, FL in early 1992 by "boy band guru" Louis J. Pearlman. From 1992 to 2007, Trans Continental Records was home to famous boy bands such as the Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, and O-Town, as well as some other notable recording artists. Having been shuttered a few weeks after Pearlman's infamous arrest by the U.S. FBI in June 2007 and then subsequently forced into an involuntary federal bankruptcy as part of a large Ponzi scheme masterminded by Pearlman, the label was mostly inactive over the following years until finally resuming normal business operations again in January 2025. Trans Continental Records is distributed worldwide, exclusively, by Cheiron Music Group.
