Miley Cyrus has publicly announced the title of her tenth studio album.
Following a week of hints, the singer-songwriter took to Instagram on Tuesday to reveal that Bass Persuades will be released on 18 September.
“Music latches onto us. We feel it, sing along to it, sometimes dance to it, release it and carry on. It is powerful, vulnerable, sweet and strong,” she wrote. “A heart full, heartache, every part of life in between. That’s what the title signifies to me.”
Miley, who appears to have dropped her surname from her Instagram handle and other social profiles, went on to praise her devoted fans for their ongoing support.
“Thank you for helping turn my wildest dreams into reality. I sincerely hope you love this album,” the 33-year-old exclaimed.
In an interview for Wonderland magazine published in July, Miley – who is engaged to musician Maxx Morando – described her upcoming project as a “love story.”
“There is definitely a romantic thread running through it because, like all my records, it’s a reflection of where I am in my life. But this one feels especially meaningful because this feeling has lingered through multiple eras,” she smiled at the time. “That’s something I hadn’t really experienced before. A peaceful kind of love has become a theme across my last three records. Not just the love I share with someone else, but the love I’ve found for myself. That’s probably been the biggest evolution.”
Later on Tuesday, Miley also confirmed she would perform two shows at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on 16 and 18 October to celebrate her new album. Rock band Model/Actriz will serve as the special guest.
“It’s been a while. The Hollywood Bowl is my favorite place to experience music and see my favorite artists,” she added. “I’ve sat in those seats many times, but I’ve never taken the stage. LA is my heart and I’m bringing it home. See you there.”
Miley released her ninth studio album, Something Beautiful, in May 2025.
