Miley Cyrus' New Album Is Here

While the weather might not show it, summer is finally here, thanks to Miley Cyrus’ new album. Endless Summer Vacation is a breezy, effortlessly-cool eighth album from the genre-shifting singer. Cyrus shared the second single from the album “River,” a disco-infused, dance-pop track chronicling a rollercoaster relationship. 

“This song evolved from a trouble where it felt like it never stopped raining, to then raining down love,” shared Cyrus on Spotify. 

The singer released a sleek, stylish video for the club-inspired banger. The 1990s-inspired black-and-white video saw rain pouring down on the star and her shirtless backup dancers.  

We see a new Cyrus emerge from her Plastic Hearts punk-rocker-era this time around.  Ditching her silver-studded chains and Blondie-esque aesthetic, Cyrus takes a confident dip in the palm-tree-shaded pool. The album feels like a slick transition from a sunny day out on a shopping street to a wild, a cocktail-sipping night on the town. 

“In LA, there’s a certain energy to the night, and you can feel trouble boil up to the surface, and it’s very inspiring to me,” said the 30-year-old singer about her dueling A.M/P.M album concept.

Cyrus also announced Endless Summer Vacation (Backyard Sessions), an exclusive Disney+  performance of the new album, in celebration of the release. She will also perform her hit "The Climb," a full circle moment for the Hannah Montana star.

Endless Summer Vacation features collaborations from Brandi Carlile and Sia on the 13-track album. “Thousand Miles' takes Cyrus back to her country star days, her signature husky voice pairing well with Carlile’s crystal clear vocals, backed by a harmonica melody. 

Miley Cyrus once again proves herself as a versatile talent, pulling off house dance-pop as well as soulful ballads. Endless Summer Vacation is the perfect escape for anyone wishing to travel to warmer days.
