On June 25th 2025, in collaboration with Open Folk, we presented our first ever live interview event in Los Angeles. As Open Folk put it: "In These Lines is a live event where three artists each bring one song — not just to perform, but to explore. They sit down with Sofia Loporcaro, host of Before The Chorus, to talk about where the song came from, what it meant to write it, and what it still holds. Then they play it. Just the song, and the truth behind it."

Before a song is released, a record is produced, or a chorus is written, the musicians that write them think. A lot. They live. A lot. And they feel. A LOT. Hosted by award-winning interviewer Sofia Loporcaro, Before the Chorus explores the genuine human experiences behind the music. Sofia’s deep knowledge of music and personal journey with mental health help her connect with artists on a meaningful level. This is a space where fans connect with artists, and listeners from all walks of life feel seen through the stories that shape the music we love. About the host: Sofia Loporcaro is an award-winning interviewer and radio host who’s spent over 8 years helping musicians share their stories. She’s hosted shows for Amazing Radio, and Transmission Roundhouse. Now on Before the Chorus, she’s had the chance to host guests like Glass Animals, Feist, Madison Cunningham, Mick Jenkins, & Ru Paul's Drag Race winner Shea Couleé. Learn more about your ad choices.

Just a quick update from me as I noticed I had a few listens... Was going to do a session with my daughter reading jokes to me but that will have to be a future episode!
I played through "Reindeer are better than people" from Frozen a couple of times then this melody came up which reminded me of something my brother from another mother used to play in the mussekke in Angola. Just freestyled some lyrics on top
India woke up early which is very rare for her so I knew something was going on. Turns out she had a nightmare. So I sat her down to tell the story then improvised some electric guitar to add an atmosphere... Hope you enjoy!
Getting more focused with these podcast ideas. My modus operandi is, turn on the recorder and just talk! I wonder what ideas will flow through in the future???!!!
Music is a big party of my life... As I say on the podcast. As is learning about the structure of life, and my own place within that structure... Thanks for listening
I have finally rented a place. Now to buy all the appliances and fixtures. There will have to be a cast about buying a sofa as I neglected to mention that in this recording! Thanks for listening (forgot that too!)
I've been living with my parents following a difficult separation from the country of Angola. Carving out my own space in the kitchen has been difficult but (episode title) has afforded soom opportunity. I don't do it on the weekends though!
The Vauxhall vivaro gives up the ghost. All the lights go on, smoke billowing it the back like a rock concert smoke machine and me getting cold and wet off junction 3 of the M5.
Just a Quick thought on the TTS speed awareness course I did... As an extra thought, we should really find a way to discourage Tailgaters on the M6/M42 interchange.
Just a quick voice note inspired by Donald Trumps dinner party on the 19th Jan 2019
