The album was announced on 15 December 2021. In a press release, Anthony Field said: "It's been really enjoyable and also so humbling, hearing all these wonderful artists doing their versions of Wiggles songs – they're all so very talented. And it's been a real thrill to get back in the studio together with all the Wiggles – the current members and the OG's – to record some cover versions of our own."[3] A five track sampler was released digitally on the same day.[4]
ReWiggled debuted at number one on the ARIA Albums Chart, becoming the Wiggles' first number-one album in Australia.[5]
The album won Best Children's Album at the 2022 ARIA Music Awards. It has also been nominated for Best Record at the 2023 Shure Rolling Stones Australia Awards.[6]
