  • The Wiggles are an Australian children's music group formed in Sydney in 1991. The group are currently composed of Anthony Field, Lachlan Gillespie, Simon Pryce and Tsehay Hawkins, as well as supporting members Evie Ferris, John Pearce, Caterina Mete and Lucia Field. The Wiggles were founded in 1991 by Field, Murray Cook, Jeff Fatt, Greg Page and Phillip Wilcher. Wilcher left the group after their first album. Page retired in 2006 due to ill health and was replaced by understudy Sam Moran, but returned in 2012, replacing Moran. At the end of 2012, Cook, Fatt and Page retired and were replaced by Gillespie, Pryce and Emma Watkins. Cook and Fatt retained their shareholding in the group and all three continued to have input into its creative and production aspects. Watkins departed the group in 2021, with Hawkins taking her place. Field and Fatt were members of the Australian pop band the Cockroaches in the 1980s, and Cook was a member of several bands before meeting Field and Page at Macquarie University, where they were studying to become pre-school teachers. In 1991, Field was inspired to create an album of children's music based upon concepts of early childhood education, and he enlisted Cook, Page, and Fatt to assist him. They began touring to promote the album and became so successful, they quit their teaching jobs to perform full-time. The group augmented their act with costumed characters Dorothy the Dinosaur, Henry the Octopus and Wags the Dog, as well as the human character Captain Feathersword, played by Paul Paddick since 1993. Shirley Shawn the Unicorn was later introduced. They originally travelled with a small group of dancers, which later grew into a larger troupe. The group's albums, DVDs and television programs have been produced independently since their inception. The height of their popularity came in the early 2000s, after they broke into the American market. The group were formally consolidated in 2005. They were listed at the top of Business Review Weekly's top-earning Australian entertainers four years in a row and earned A$45 million in 2009. In 2011, the worldwide recession hit the Wiggles, as it had done for many Australian entertainers; they earned $28 million, but they still appeared second on BRW's list that year. The Wiggles have enjoyed almost universal approval throughout their history, and their music has been played in pre-schools all over the world. They have earned multiple Gold, Platinum and double Platinum records; have sold 23 million DVDs and 7 million CDs; and have performed, on average, to one million people per year. The band has earned multiple Australasian Performing Rights Association (APRA) and Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) Music Awards, and they have been inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame.

  • I Wiggles sono un gruppo musicale anglo-australiano formatosi a Londra e Sydney nel 1991. I membri originali erano Anthony Field, Murray Cook, Greg Page e Jeff Fatt. I Wiggles combinano musica per bambini con programmi educativi e sono stati sempre caratterizzati da colori e comportamenti che li rendessero facilmente riconoscibili ai più giovani: Anthony Field indossa una maglia azzurra (originariamente era verde ma si confondeva con Dorothy il Dinosauro) ed è un gran mangione, Murray Cook ha la maglia rossa e suona la chitarra, Greg Page veste di giallo e canta e infine Jeff Fatt indossa il colore viola e dorme sempre. Nel novembre 2006 Greg Page viene sostituito da Sam Moran che ne eredita i colori. Greg Page è tornato nel 2012, sostituendo Sam Moran. Alla fine del 2012, Greg Page, Murray Cook e Jeff Fatt sono andati in pensione e sono stati sostituiti da Lachlan Gillespie, Simon Pryce e Emma Watkins. Murray Cook e Jeff Fatt hanno mantenuto la loro partecipazione nel gruppo e tutti e tre hanno continuato ad avere un input sui suoi aspetti creativi e di produzione di Anthony Field e Jeff Fatt erano membri della pop band australiana The Cockroaches negli anni 80 e Murray Cook era membro di diverse band prima di incontrare Field and Page presso l'Università di Macquarie, dove stavano studiando per diventare insegnanti prescolastici. Nel 1991, Anthony Field è stato ispirato a creare un album di musica per bambini basato su concetti di educazione infantile e ha arruolato Cook, Page e Fatt per aiutarlo. Hanno iniziato a girare per promuovere l'album, e sono diventati così riusciti, hanno abbandonato i loro posti di insegnamento per eseguire a tempo pieno. Il gruppo ha ampliato il loro atto con personaggi animali Dorothy il dinosauro, Henry la piovra e Wags il cane, oltre al personaggio Capitan Spadapiuma, interpretato da Paul Paddick dal 1993. Viaggiarono con un piccolo gruppo di ballerini, Truppa più grande. I DVD, i CD e i programmi televisivi del gruppo sono stati prodotti indipendentemente dal loro inizio. Il loro punto più alto è venuto nei primi anni 2000, dopo che sono entrati nel mercato americano. Il gruppo è stato formalmente consolidato nel 2005. Sono stati elencati in cima ai più famosi spettacoli australiani Business Review Weekly quattro anni di fila e hanno guadagnato 45 milioni di dollari nel 2009. Nel 2011 la recessione mondiale ha colpito i Wiggles, come aveva fatto per molti spettacoli australiani; hanno guadagnato 28 milioni di dollari, ma sono ancora comparsi secondo l'elenco di BRW quell'anno. I Wiggles hanno goduto dell'approvazione quasi universale in tutta la loro storia, e la loro musica è stata eseguita in scuole di tutto il mondo. Hanno guadagnato diversi dischi di platino, doppio platino e multi platino, oltre a vendere 23 milioni di DVD e 7 milioni di CD. Il gruppo ha inoltre guadagnato diversi riconoscimenti da Australasian Performing Rights Association (APRA) e Australian Music Association (ARIA) Music Awards. (it)

  • Originally a Cockroaches tune, one of the many songs in the Cockroaches' library that was changed from Australian pop to children's music (en)
  • "Do the Monkey", recorded by the Cockroaches in 1989. With very little changes, it is almost the same as the Wiggles' version, showing how the Wiggles revamped many songs in the Cockroaches' library. (en)
  • First recorded in 1991 on the Wiggles' first album, this was originally a Cockroaches tune changed slightly to fit the genre of children's music. (en)

dbp:quote
  • "Where was the fun? Where were the references to the simple things that are so dominant in a child's life? Favourite books, colours, dancing, playing, nap time. And what's wrong with kids getting up and grooving; squealing, screaming, and laughing through a performance? I wanted to explore alternate ways to write and perform for young children, to ensure the music was for them, not just the musician. Nothing complicated, snide, or condescending." (en)
