This week’s PBS Feature Album is Creature of Habit, the fourth studio album from GRAMMY-nominated Australian singer-songwriter Courtney Barnett.
Creature of Habit is a bold, emotionally resonant record that explores the central question: how to get out of your own way so you can truly feel your life. Written in the wake of a relocation from Australia to Los Angeles and the closure of her long-running label Milk! Records, Barnett was grappling with changes that put the future of both her life and career in question. Rather than internalizing those feelings, she decided to bring all this swirling confusion directly into the recording process. With previous singles “Stay in Your Lane,” “Site Unseen (feat. Waxahatchee),” “Mantis,” and “Sugar Plum” setting the tone, the album marks a decisive new chapter in Courtney Barnett’s musical evolution.
