Miley album release and Hollywood Bowl residency

Overview

Singer Miley Cyrus, performing under the mononym ‘Miley’, released her tenth studio album, ‘Bass Persuades’, on September 18, 2026, via Atlantic Records and Warner Music. The 11-track project explores a sonic range between “dark electronic sounds and light, sugary pop,” featuring collaborations with Model/Actriz, Andrew Wyatt, and Kid Harpoon, with significant production involvement from her fiancé, Maxx Morando. The rebranding to ‘Miley’ was supported by her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, who described the move as a “natural progression for an iconic superstar legend.”

Critical reception has been mixed. While some reviewers characterized the work as a “lively and engaging evolution,” others described it as a “somewhat disjointed venture” that “lacks significant innovation and retreats into familiar pop territories.” Despite mixed reviews, the album achieved significant commercial success, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200 with 61,000 equivalent album units. This marked Cyrus’s first number one album in 13 years, since 2013’s ‘Bangerz’. In its second week, ‘Bass Persuades’ fell to number 157, setting a Billboard record for the largest second-week drop from number one by a female artist for an entirely new album.

Lyrically, the album touches on personal themes, including the death of her godmother, Dolly Parton, and her relationship with her sister, Noah Cyrus, on the track ‘Innocent Ways’. To promote the release, ‘Global Listening Parties’ were held in various locations. On October 17, Cyrus launched her “Bass Persuades – Live at the Hollywood Bowl” concert series in Los Angeles. Following the residency, she released the music video for ‘Orbit’, a mid-tempo pop ballad directed by Alastair McKimm.
