In the early nineties Larrikin launched a major initiative, in association with Bill Stephens, to record Australian cabaret music. It also released a number of children's artists.
Larrikin licensed recordings to other record labels both internationally and domestically. It was also sold after 20 years in 1995 (to Festival Records).
