After working together at Shock records,[2] Leigh Gruppetta and Stu Harvey founded Cooking Vinyl Australia in 2013, in a partnership with Martin Goldschmidt, the London-based Cooking Vinyl Group Founder & CEO.

In 2016, Cooking Vinyl Australia launched a music publishing division based in Sydney, Australia. Reporting directly to Goldschmidt, Cooking Vinyl Publishing is a standalone company overseen by Matthew Donlevy, the former managing director of Peermusic.[3][4]

In 2018, Cooking Vinyl Australia partnered with Sony Music Australia with Sony making "a significant investment" in the Indie label.[5][6] As part of the arrangement, Cooking Vinyl Australia's recordings would be distributed globally through Sony's distributor and label services company The Orchard.

"We are thrilled about what the future holds as we enter this next phase of the business"[5] - Leigh Gruppetta, The Music Network, 2018

In November 2022, Cooking Vinyl Australia signed Melbourne/Naarm based band CIVIC and announced the release of their latest album Taken By Force (released February 2023).[7]
