Helmed by legendary Academy® Award-winning producer T Bone Burnett, the album boasts a series of fan favorite singles such as “Fire,” “Saint Honesty,” “No Such Thing,” and “Armor”—which Variety dubbed“exuberantly feminist.” Not to mention, she continues to attract widespread acclaim. In an in-depth profile,Los Angeles Times fittingly described the record as “raw” and “stripped down.” She also recently appeared on an episode of Carpool Karaoke alongside none other than Tony® Award winner Ben Platt. Additionally,she just wrapped up a packed mini-tour with sellouts everywhere and hosted a New York Times Talk.

Amidst the Chaos represents Bareilles at her most exposed, engaging, and enthralling. Intimate piano and poetic lyrics comprise an emotional journey throughout these twelve tracks. “If I Can’t Have You” borders on simmering soul. Elsewhere, “Poetry By Dead Men” evokes the spirit of a literary opus. Everything culminates on the poignant and powerful ballad “A Safe Place To Land” [feat. John Legend], which highlights her range alongside the iconic crooner.

This week, Bareilles launches a full-scale television takeover. On Saturday April 6, she takes the stage for a performance on Saturday Night Live followed by Good Morning America April 8, The Ellen DeGeneres Showand The Late Late Show with James Corden April 10, and The Talk April 12.
