In January PBS listeners can expect to hear a few tweaks to our weekly programming roster, and we also welcome a brand new show to the airwaves.
After 26 years on-air, Peter and Gary wind up their epic Thursday night show Screaming Symphony on January 1, 2026, allowing for some movement across the grid and some fresh sounds for PBS listeners.
Each week throughout the year, we select one new outstanding album to feature across our platforms as a way of celebrating music that is authentic, original and pure. In 2025, we featured dozens of exceptional albums across a variety of genres that tap into various musical traditions from different corners of the world. Every one of these albums tells a profound story in its own voice, speaking directly to the soul of those willing to listen.
As we start to wrap up for the year - and before publishing 2025's top ten feature albums next week - we wanted to share with you ten new tracks that speak to the breadth of our sound and tap into the various musical traditions that we love. With music from Naarm to Damascus to Delhi, from liquid drum n bass and soul, to prog, folk and rock n roll, we sincerely hope you enjoy these fabulous selections.

This week’s PBS Feature Album is the self titled album from GODTET + The Sydney Symphony Orchestra.
At once bold and nuanced, this album explores the friction between improvisation and orchestration. Where the orchestra is anchored in fully composed material, GODTET remains free – navigating the work's harmonic architecture with instinct and spontaneity. Structures are fixed, but expression is fluid.
This week’s PBS Feature Album is Time Telling, the evocative new album from Black Jesus eXperience.
Grooving, richly diverse and truth seeking, Time Telling explores the fragility of life, the preciousness of time and the importance of hope, love, joy and community.
