Lachy is the Purple Wiggle, who replaced Jeff in 2013.
Like Greg and Sam , he is the lead singer in most of the songs. Some of the notable songs he sings lead on are Rock-a-Bye Your Bear , Let's Go (We're Riding In The Big Red Car) and The Shimmie Shake! .
He plays the keyboards, just like Jeff, which makes him the only Wiggle in the new generation to play the same instrument as his same-coloured predecessor. He also plays the tambourine, guitar, and accordion on occasion.
He likes inventing, but most of his inventions backfire and don't go well.
Trivia
He is the current youngest male Wiggle after Sam.
He likes playing all types of pianos and keyboards.
