The Wiggles
The Wiggles are grabbing their cowboy hats and boots and teaming up with some country stars including Dolly Parton, Lainey Wilson, Jackson Dean, Dasha and more for a brand new album, Wiggle Up, Giddy Up! set for release March 7.
Other artists joining The Wiggles on their country romp are Orville Peck, Morgan Evans, Troy Cassar-Daley, MacKenzie Porter, Kaylee Bell, Travis Collins, The Wolfe Brothers, Lucky Oceans and the late Slim Dusty. The title track from the new project, a collaboration with Dasha, is out now.
As the world’s most popular children’s entertainment group, The Wiggles have educated, entertained and enriched the lives of millions of pre-schoolers (and their parents) across the globe with over three billion music streams, five billion views on YouTube, 30 million album and DVDs sales and over eight million books sold globally.
“This is one of the most exciting projects we’ve ever been a part of, in fact, I’ve never spent so much time on an album before,” says Anthony Field, Blue Wiggle and co-founder of the group. “Country music is all about storytelling and connection. Combining that with The Wiggles’ fun and imagination and collaborations with these legendary country music artists felt like the perfect match. We can’t wait for families everywhere to hear these songs!”
“We’re so excited to share Wiggle Up, Giddy Up! with families everywhere,” adds Lachy Gillespie, Purple Wiggle. “It’s a song that’s packed with energy, fun, and plenty of country flair. Collaborating with the incredible Dasha, whose music has already brought country music to a whole new audience, was an absolute joy. Whether you’re three, thirty-three, or ninety-three, this song is all about bringing people together to sing, dance, and even try a bit of line dancing!”
