The Wiggles are back for their record-breaking 35th year of edutainment continuing their domination of the greatest preschool music band in the world from down under Australia. 2026 has unfortunately started on a sour note for Anthony Field's creation when they made the stupid decision to break up the partnership with their OWN COPYRIGHT HOLDER, their record label Australian Broadcasting Corporation who has been the official record label of the group since day one in 1991. But now they have thankfully recovered from that loss and are back in full force to celebrate their 35th anniversary.
Kicking off The Wiggles and ABC Kids Australia's new music contract with famous Hollywood movie company Universal Pictures and their Republic Records children's label is their newest album and video releases Hello, We're The Wiggles hich seems like a release that was too little too late as they originally branded this as a concert tour exclusive in 2024 and was never meant to be a studio release until now.
As expected with most modern Wiggles releaes since 2013, the new album consists new songs, updated versions of their iconic back catalog for the new generation and some songs being complete ripoffs by rewritting the entire songs completely. It's like The Wiggles, The Backyardigans and Bubble Guppies want to be sued by Weird Al Yankovic now.
