Available Online Soon...Our bright shiny new debut album fresh off the press...watch this space ;)

Wiggle are a Cork based four piece dub groove band that began in late 1999. They began by experimenting with sequencers and live instruments crossing psychedelic folk with electro dub and thus the Wiggle sound was born. As they grew so did their sound and their array of mystical instruments and wiggly effects. Wiggle became the sound of the Cork underground with a diverse audience spanning from dub heads to happy hippies to techno nuts. Their new 13 track self produced debut album “Brighten the World” has been launched and will be available online in April.
Toby, Colm and John John all shared a house on Sundays well in Cork with Lilly the cat and Jim (aka VJ Present). They had a music room there where they used to jam. Toby got himself a Roland 505, Colm played guitar and John John played Double bass at the time. Wiggle began in the music room but quickly became a live entity. The live element is integral to Wiggle. Early Wiggle gigs were jam sessions involving Toby, Colm and John John with various friends/guests (singing/ drumming/ flute/ keys) turning up and joining in. Dub music is a huge influence on all of them, and they owe a huge debt to Dub music technically. The likes of King Tubby, Lee Perry, and Augustus Pablo and their studio antics certainly resonate with and inspire them. Unlike many live Dub soundsystems, where they play back pre-recorded material and add effects, vocals and EQ live, Wiggle's sound is created and manipulated completely live. Everything you hear is created live by someone doing something to an instrument on the stage. Dub is not their sole influence however, they listen to and are influenced by lots of other music; Roots reggae, Jungle, Breakcore, Dubstep, Hiphop, Metal, Punk, Country, Tango, Klezmer… pretty much everything. Wiggle play for the dancers, a symbiosis happens where the music feeds the dance feeds the music feeds the dance and on until they're told to stop.
Wiggle play with sound using stuff like drum machines, sequencers, samplers, computers, keyboards, melodica, occasional box accordion, electric and bass guitars. Blending roots reggae with drum and bass beats strumming bleeps and loops and spacing sonicly. Irish Drum n Bass, Dub and Jungle from down by the Lee, astral vocals, spectral guitars, sub-bass bombings, glittering keys and Trí eye beats, blips and bleeps.



Wiggle are:

Toby Eaton (vocals, drum machines, sequencers, fudge effects)

Colm Rooney (guitars, making stuff, doing stuff)

Jon Jon Conway (bass and two dinners)

Rory McGovern (keyboards, computers, anything and fish)

Jim Conway aka Visual Jim aka VJ Present aka Jim Jim (Visuals, doing stuff, making stuff and fish)
