A cinematic, deeply personal song —born in an hour, sung in harmony, and anchored in Southern soil.
Indie Country From Nashville•Featuring Miley Cyrus
Braison Cyrus —a storyteller stepping out of the shadow of a famous last name— releases “Know This”, a powerful indie-country anthem featuring his sister, global superstar Miley Cyrus. Written in just one hour at his Nashville home studio with co-writer Jordan Lindley, the track blends warm, organic instrumentation with emotive harmonies —marking their first-ever musical collaboration.
A Southern American Folk Voice•Rooted in Story and Soil
Known for his soulful songwriting and deep Southern American folk influence, Braison Cyrus has carved his own path with authenticity and heart. His music —cinematic, intimate, unfiltered —draws from personal truth, not spectacle.
Co-producer Ryan Rasmussen and Braison felt the track would benefit from a female voice —one with a taunting, sassy quality. Miley Cyrus, with her unmistakable tone and emotional range, was the natural choice. Her presence doesn’t overshadow —it elevates, weaving seamlessly into the song’s fabric.
“Know This” is the third single from Braison’s upcoming full-length album —his first since the narrative-driven Javelina (2021). It follows 2025’s “From Now On” and “Here In The Middle” (feat. Sierra Lundy) —each a step deeper into his signature blend of storytelling and sonic atmosphere.
Critical Acclaim & Next Chapter
Hailed by American Songwriter as “a storyteller of epic proportions,” Braison’s work continues to build momentum. With “Know This”, he leans fully into his roots-inspired sound —grounded, honest, and unmistakably his own. The new album arrives Spring 2026.
Know This (Feat. Miley Cyrus)•Review by Indie Valley Music
Know This’ is a masterclass in emotional precision and organic production. From the first note, the song unfolds with cinematic grace —acoustic textures warm and unhurried, harmonies emotive and perfectly balanced. This isn’t a showcase —it’s a sanctuary.
“Braison’s voice —firm, deeply felt, with a clear folk identity— carries the lyric with quiet authority. Miley’s entrance isn’t a feature —it’s a fusion. Her tone, sly and soulful, doesn’t answer him —it wraps around him. Together, they create a duet that feels lived-in, not staged —intimate, effortless, and profoundly moving.”
“Technically, the production is immaculate. The mix is spacious yet cohesive —every instrument given room to breathe without losing connection. The mastering deepens the low end and brightens the highs —creating an immersive, warm, and deeply comforting sonic identity true to indie-country’s spirit. This is Southern storytelling at its finest —not loud, not flashy, but true. And in a world of noise, that’s everything.”
