Art Monk Construction was founded by Eric Astor and Garrett Rothman in State College, Pennsylvania in 1993.[1] When Rothman left State College to study abroad, Astor was joined in managing the label by Rich Kraemer, a childhood friend from Tempe, Arizona, and the two additionally formed Lumberjack Distribution and Furnace MFG to distribute and manufacture products for Art Monk Construction and other independent labels and artists.[1] The operations moved to Falls Church, Virginia, in August 1995.[2] Lumberjack Distribution was sold to Doghouse Records in 1997, whereupon Kraemer moved to Europe and Astor was left running Art Monk Construction and Furnace MFG by himself.[3]
