The Wiggles - All Lyrics, Photos and Biography
The Wiggles are Australia’s premier children’s entertainers and are a global cultural phenomenon. Their trademark includes cheerily coloured turtlenecks, and nonsensical lyrics paired with upbeat rock and pop style songs for children.
The original line-up was formed in 1991. Founding member and Yellow Wiggle Greg Page retired in 2006 due to ill health. This forced the group to reevaluate their strategy. In 2012, the two other original members also retired (Jeff Fatt and Murray Cook). All three retain creative and production roles.
The current line-up is much younger and consists of founding member Anthony Field, Lachlan Gillespie, Simon Pryce, and Emma Watkins.
The Wiggles continue going from strength to strength and were named Australia’s highest entertainment earners in the late 2000s – Business Review Weekly ranked them number one four years in a row, earning A$45 million in 2009.
