History

Don Giovanni Records was founded by Joe Steinhardt and Zach Gajewski while they were living in Boston in 2003.

Don Giovanni's primary focus has been on bands local to the New York/New Jersey independent music scene with a heavy focus on New Brunswick, NJ's basement scene. The label also has a reputation for supporting and working with female fronted and LGBT artists such as Screaming Females, Waxahatchee, Priests, and Laura Stevenson & The Cans.^[1]

Steinhardt and Gajewski started the label while playing in bands themselves and attending college at Boston University where the two met. After graduation they moved to New Brunswick, where Steinhardt was originally from, in order to make the label a full-time operation.
