Stingray adds ZenLIFE, Qello Concerts, TikTok Radio and DJAZZ to Pluto TV

February 18, 2026 17.14 Europe/London By Broadband TV News Correspondent

Stingray has expanded its distribution deal with Pluto TV, launching four new FAST channels on the free streaming platform: ZenLIFE, Qello Concerts, TikTok Radio and Stingray DJAZZ.

The additions sit alongside Stingray’s existing Pluto TV offering, including Classica, Holidayscapes and Naturescape, as the company continues to scale music and mood-based programming across ad-supported streaming. 

Rick Bergan, Head of Content Distribution US at Stingray, said: “We are thrilled to expand our partnership with Pluto TV and bring four of our highly curated channels to their massive and growing audience. This launch underscores our commitment to delivering high-quality, free-to-access entertainment for every taste. From the viral hits on TikTok Radio to the serene escape of ZenLIFE, the legendary performances on Qello Concerts, and the soulful rhythms of Stingray DJAZZ, we are confident these channels will resonate deeply with Pluto TV viewers.” 

The four channels are positioned to offer a distinct choice of viewing and listening.

ZenLIFE refreshes its line-up for 2026 with wellness-focused, easy-listening programming designed as a backdrop for work, relaxation and sleep. Qello Concerts brings full-length concert films and artist-led music documentaries from Stingray’s concert video brand, extending longform music programming into Pluto TV’s linear-style environment. 

TikTok Radio is billed as a 24/7 stream of trending tracks and clips curated from TikTok, pairing full-length songs with the viral moments that drove their discovery. Stingray DJAZZ rounds out the quartet with jazz concerts, festival performances and documentary-led programming. 

For Pluto TV, the move adds more “always on” music and lifestyle channels that can increase session length and provide a low-friction alternative to on-demand viewing, particularly for ambient viewing and lean-back music video consumption. For Stingray, it is another step in pushing curated music brands into free, ad-supported distribution as FAST platforms look to broaden channel line-ups beyond film and TV libraries.
