My Sensitive Chaos ‘Closer to Home’ album received a really nice review from Kathy Parsons of Mainly Piano.
“Closer To Home is the eleventh album from Atlanta-based musical collective, Sensitive Chaos, but I have to admit that it’s the first for me – an incredible discovery! Don’t miss it!”

Building on a massively successful 15-year run of worldwide airplay, live concerts, and festival appearances – as well as multiple award considerations from Zone Music Reporter and One World Music Radio to the Grammys – Sensitive Chaos proudly presents its 11th release: Closer to Home.
Sensitive Chaos is an ever-changing musical collective founded and led by composer/synthesist/producer Jim Combs. For this outing, Jim was backed by Sensitive Chaos alums Ryan P. Taylor on guitars and bass, Josie Quick (Perpetual Motion) on violin, Brian Good on soprano saxophone, Mitchell Sosebee on drums and percussion, and newcomer Brian Donohoe (Snarky Puppy, Progger, One O’Clock Jazz Band) on alto & tenor saxophone, clarinet, flute, and keyboards.
Among the guest artists on various tracks: World-renowned Diane Arkenstone on spoken word, Tom Carleno (Perpetual Motion) on 12-string guitar, Paul Nagle (Binar, Joint Intelligence Committee, Ideation, and Headshock) on synthesizers and sound effects, and famed New Age artist Giles Reaves on synthesizers, drums, & percussion.
True to the Sensitive Chaos creative process, Closer to Home began life as a series of looping improvisations recorded during rehearsals and performances at the Atlanta-based Nophest Festivals, Oakhurst Porchfest Festivals, and online virtual shows on Kimono My House during the 2020 pandemic.
These live foundations were brought back to the studio for arrangement and orchestration, followed by remote contributions from the various guest musicians, with Jim editing and mixing the final results.
The result is a 108-minute double CD with music that strides across the musical worlds of ambient, world, electronic, jazz, found sound, and downtempo chillout.
Our new ‘Closer to Home’ album is now available on Bandcamp ahead of the official May 7, 2021 release date, when online stores and streaming outlets will begin offering the album.
We’re already receiving radio and internet airplay from around the world.
Our goal is for people to hear the music. Listen as much as you want. If you want to support the band, name your own price for a digital download or buy a deluxe double CD with 16-page liner note booklet.
