Miley Ray Cyrus was born in Franklin, Tennessee on November 23, 1992. She is the daughter of country singer Billy Ray Cyrus and the goddaughter of Dolly Parton. She launched her career as the lead actress in the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana (2006-2011), with parallel music release schedules tied to the show. Her post-Disney transition into adult pop was marked by Bangerz (2013) - with the controversial Wrecking Ball music video, We Can't Stop, and her 2013 MTV Video Music Awards performance becoming defining cultural moments. She has continued releasing material across multiple decades with progressively varied stylistic exploration, including pivots into 1970s/1980s rock-influenced material (Plastic Hearts, 2020 with rock collaborations) and dance-pop (Endless Summer Vacation, 2023 with the single Flowers becoming a international #1 hit). She won two Grammy Awards at the 2024 ceremony - Record of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance for Flowers.
Miley Cyrus's sound has spanned country pop, pop, dance-pop, rock, country, R&B, alternative pop, and rock and roll, with stylistic exploration across her multi-decade career. Her distinctive vocal delivery (with husky lower-register approach since adolescence) and her progressive reinventions have been associated with her parallel cultural impact.
Hollywood, RCA, and Columbia pressings of the Miley Cyrus catalog have been issued in extensive color variant editions and limited deluxe pressings.
Listeners new to Miley Cyrus typically start with Bangerz (2013) or Endless Summer Vacation (2023).
