October Artist Series Brings Music from Miley, Harry Styles, and Skepta to Peloton

Miley’s Tread debut leads a three-artist lineup that also follows Harry Styles through a busy Madison Square Garden stretch and welcomes Skepta to the format for the first time.

This month’s October Artist Series lines up three artists who are all quite different from one another, despite two being powerhouses. Miley brings the momentum of a brand-new treadmill launch, Harry Styles fills out classes at both Peloton studios while he plays a marathon run of shows a few miles from one of them, and Skepta makes his first appearance in the format just as he readies a long-awaited album.

Miley’s Tread Debut Anchors the Lineup

The October Artist Series opens at Peloton Studios New York on Friday, October 9, with a live three-class Miley lineup. Katie Wang leads a 30-minute Miley Row at 9:15 AM, Robin Arzón follows with a 30-minute Intermediate Miley Full Body Strength class at 11:15 AM, and Adrian Williams closes the day with a 30-minute Miley Run at 5:00 PM. Cody Rigsby adds a 30-minute Miley Ride at 9:45 AM Saturday, October 10, and Jess King leads a 30-minute Miley Walk at 12:00 PM Sunday, October 11. We expect more classes will be added On Demand.

The timing is not a coincidence. Peloton just launched the Tread Flex, its first foldable treadmill, alongside a new ad campaign called Let Yourself Run, starring Miley (no longer known as Miley Cyrus). The spot was built around “Bass Persuades,” the title track from her tenth studio album, and Peloton had said a full Miley Artist Series pulling from that record is set to arrive in early October, timed to the product launch. And here it is!

Our coverage and Peloton’s press releases have the behind-the-scenes details, including comments from instructor Adrian Williams, who also leads the October 9 Miley Run. The campaign was directed by Bethany Vargas (who also led the recent Hudson Williams campaign) and is running across television, streaming, and digital platforms in the US and Canada.

Harry Styles Fills Out the Schedule at Both Studios

Harry Styles classes run across three separate dates (so far!) in October, split between both Peloton studios. Matt Wilpers prerecords a 30-minute Harry Styles Row at Peloton Studios New York on Thursday, October 1, from 5:30 to 6:00 PM ET, filmed with members in the room. Peloton is holding the class for a later on-demand release rather than airing it live.

In the back half of the month, Aditi Shah leads a 20-minute Intermediate Harry Styles Pilates class Thursday, October 29, at 12:15 PM. Over at Peloton Studios London, Jon Hosking’s has a 30-minute Harry Styles Walk + Run on Friday, October 30, at 5:30 PM, and Leanne Hainsby-Alldis’s 30-minute Harry Styles Ride at 7:00 PM the same day.

The October placement spotlights a busy stretch for Styles. His Together, Together tour includes a 30-show Madison Square Garden residency running from August 26 through October 31, 2026, every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. (And anyone who has visited PSNY in this period knows that the hotels have been full of his fans!) By the time his residency wraps, he will have headlined 52 shows at MSG as a solo artist across his two extended runs there.

Skepta Makes His Peloton Studios London Debut

Rounding out the October Artist Series, Hannah Frankson leads a live 30-minute Skepta Ride at 10:00 AM on Saturday, October 24, at Peloton Studios London, followed by Joslyn Thompson Rule’s 30-minute Skepta Run at 12:00 PM. Seems like a tie-in to UK Black History Month though as of this writing that has not yet been announced.

Skepta is a fitting artist for a London studio debut. The Tottenham-born, Nigerian-British MC is a founding member of Boy Better Know and won the Mercury Prize for his 2016 album Konnichiwa, one of the defining releases in grime’s crossover into the mainstream. He has not released a solo studio album since 2019’s Ignorance Is Bliss, but that is about to change.

His forthcoming record, The Fork and Knife, has been years in the making, and he released its newest single, “Innocent Smile” featuring Chase & Status and Suggs, on September 18, just weeks before this class was added to the schedule. The timing suggests Peloton is capitalizing on his album rollout and his future music. Currently his music is only in 68 On Demand classes in the Peloton library.
