The Wiggles have enlisted New Zealand country star Kaylee Bell for their new album, Wiggle Up, Giddy Up!. 

Bell features on “Say the Dance, Boots ’N All”, a hybrid track that blends the beloved Wiggles classic “Say the Dance, Do the Dance” with her own hit “Boots ’N All”.

“We’ve always loved making music that gets children and families up and moving, and ‘Say the Dance, Boots ’N All’ brings a fresh, country feel to one of our favourite songs,” says Red Wiggle, Simon Pryce.

“Having Kaylee join us on this track has been an absolute joy – her voice and energy bring something special, and we can’t wait for everyone to hear it!”

Bell didn’t hesitate when The Wiggles approached her to collaborate on Wiggle Up, Giddy Up!, adding her signature sound to the project.

“It’s such an honour to be part of ‘Wiggle Up, Giddy Up!,” Bell says. “Being on set with The Wiggles was amazing – they were so welcoming, and it feels like the perfect moment to release this, especially now that my son is here. Boots ’N All is always a fan-favourite at my shows, so I’m excited to see everyone, young and old, get even more wiggling going with this collab!”

The track is accompanied by a music video featuring The Wiggles and Bell showing off their best country dance moves.

Wiggle Up, Giddy Up! arrives March 7 and features an all-star lineup, including Dolly Parton, Lainey Wilson, Orville Peck, Dasha, Jackson Dean, and more.

Blue Wiggle Anthony Field shares, “This is one of the most exciting projects we’ve ever been part of, in fact, I’ve never spent so much time on an album before. Country music is all about storytelling and connection and combining that with The Wiggles’ fun and imagination felt like the perfect match. We can’t wait for families everywhere to hear these songs!”

Yellow Wiggle Tsehay Hawkins chimes in, “The rising popularity of country music has opened the door for so many amazing collaborations that transcend boundaries. This album is a perfect example of how music can bring people together. Whether you’re a lifelong country fan or newer to the genre like me, ’Wiggle Up, Giddy Up!’ has fun moments for everyone. “
