I Want My Loved Ones To Go With Me
Noah Cyrus
Noah Cyrus’s I Want My Loved Ones To Go With Me is her second studio album, released July 11, 2025, and sees her moving fully into an Americana‑rooted blend of indie folk and country after only hinting at those sounds on The Hardest Part. Co‑produced with Mike Crossey and PJ Harding, the 11‑track record leans on hushed acoustic guitars, pedal steel, and spacious, organic arrangements, mixing whispered, close‑mic’d vocals with moments of fuller, cathartic release. The album features high‑profile guests—Fleet Foxes, Blake Shelton, Ella Langley, and Bill Callahan—who reinforce its indie‑Americana and Nashville cross‑currents without overshadowing Cyrus’s voice or songwriting.
Lyrically, the album circles themes of family, grief, faith, and growing into adulthood, with Cyrus describing the project as the first time she fully trusted her own instincts and felt she had captured “who I am.” Songs like “Don’t Put It All on Me” (with Fleet Foxes) and “I Saw the Mountains” frame emotional responsibility and self‑preservation against wide‑screen natural imagery, while “New Country” (with Blake Shelton) and “Way of the World” (with Ella Langley) explore independence, leaving home, and walking into unknown territory. A key emotional thread is her family history: she includes “With You,” the first song ever written by her father Billy Ray Cyrus, and has spoken about wanting the record to feel like a comforting, healing conversation with listeners and with her own past. Critics have highlighted the album’s cohesion and maturity, often calling it the moment she fully comes into her own as an artist, with a quietly powerful sound that favors slow, resonant storytelling over pop bombast.
