Miley Cyrus Announces New Album 'Bass Persuades' & Tour

Miley Cyrus has dropped her surname and released her new single, “Bass Persuades,” alongside a dance-forward music video directed by Mert Alas. The visual features the singer at her pop star best inside a New York poker club. The track is built on Eighties-inspired synths with the lyric, “If we ain’t moving, baby, baby, why are we here?” Despite teasing a clip with a Fender Stratocaster from her album teaser visual, the song is designed for the dance floor rather than a mosh pit, mirroring Charli XCX's declaration that the dance floor is dead with her own contrary line, “The kids don’t wanna dance.”

“Bass Persuades” serves as the first glimpse into Cyrus's tenth studio album of the same name. The upcoming record marks her first release under new label home Atlantic Records and acts as the follow-up to her 2025 LP Something Beautiful. Unveiling the album cover art on Instagram, Cyrus expressed gratitude to her supporters, writing, “Thank you for being a part of making my wildest dreams come true. I sincerely hope you love this album.”

Alongside the single and album announcement, Cyrus shared plans to take the stage this fall. She will headline two nights at the Hollywood Bowl on October 16 and October 18. These performances will mark her first full concert appearances in the United States since 2021.
