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.

Try to understand the context, the people, the history of a certain situation by talking to people. Sometimes it reaches to the higher levels and this dialogue could end a lot of suffering.”…

She is a graduate of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy and a mother of three kids. She says, "It’s important to understand the day-to-day life of people caught up in these difficult situations. With fiction, you can incorporate their realities into the story in a way that's more palpable. You can imagine yourself in that situation and have more compassion and empathy for the people affected by a crisis. I think that's incredibly powerful. I know it’s fiction but it’s based on people’s lives and it can communicate to the rest of the world what's happening, what are some of the concerns and important for these communities.…

EP 20 A Brief Glimpse Into the Transformative Power of Literature with Bruce Holsinger

“A poem can change you; A powerful short story can literally change your brain chemistry. At the individual level, the teaching of compassion, of love of community, these are the ways that I think literature probably moves us most effectively, but they're very hard to discern, I think. And you never know what that kind of reading experience is going to result in, what sort of emotional capacity it'll create in readers. Fiction is its own kind of displacement. It takes you out of yourself and temporarily puts you in a different world. If there's any positive relationship there, it's a good way of leaving yourself, leaving your home for a little while, leaving your comfort zone, and that's what displacement is.”…

In this episode, Anna Macdonald, a Communications and Campaigns consultant and currently Human Rights Practitioner in Residence at Columbia Law School says, “ In humanitarian work, there's a tendency to think that because it's a serious subject, we have to start with data, statistics, facts , and figures. These are important to provide the evidence, however , they're rarely the thing that gets you hooked. No one tends to feel passionate because they've heard a compelling piece of data. It's normally someone’s story that you’ve heard, that's moved you in some way that gets you interested.”…

Among his works are the novels, What Is Told , and Ambassador of the Dead , House of Widows and Excerpt from Smedley’s Secret Guide to World Literature . In his essay, Why My Favorite Characters to Write Are Often Unsympathetic and Unforgivable , he says, “I’ve felt my understanding enlarged by fiction whose charge isn’t to soothe readers by providing exemplary characters as “models for emulation” but rather to quicken them to a heightened awareness of the imagination’s, and by extension life’s, vast range, and so bring us closer to reality. Fiction should use its singular devices to disillusion us, lest we be deceived by placebos and lies. The best fiction tells lies that lie deeper than truth. Indeed, disillusionment is one hugely positive side effect that arises from reading the very best fiction.”…

In this episode,Raksha Vasudevan, an Economist, Writer and former Aid Worker whose essays and reporting have appeared in The New York Times, VICE, Guernica, and I,discuss The Story of a Brief Marriage by Anuk Arudpragasam . She says, “The best way for me to answer this question is thinking about it in terms of contribution rather than attribution. I haven’t been able to draw a direct line between reading a novel about a humanitarian crisis in a country and direct action beyond making a donation, perhaps, which is still significant, of course, but when you think about it in terms of contribution and an ecosystem of factors that can motivate action, certainly stories have the power to do that and they have done that in my life. Just like the media has a role in telling us what’s going on in the world and potentially motivating action, fiction can do that by bringing us into the lived experiences of people and not just in western societies having a personal or existential crisis, but people living through serious external events.”…

In this episode, I spoke with Alison Turner about her essay, The Autological Archive: Appraisal, Institutional Motives, and Essentializing Identity in Refugee and Asylum Seekers Narratives, In and Out of Fiction where she argues that fiction can expose parts of archival/application processes that impact who is and who is not granted asylum in the United States. She says, “ So, the autologic function that I’m pointing out here is that as bureaucracy builds, as people apply for asylum and refugee status in the United States, those who are accepted for asylum create an archive of accepted people to resettle that then informs who is accepted later. It’s responding to this fact that less than one per cent of the refugees who apply for asylum in the United States are invited to resettle. I’m asking what about those other 99 per cent, and how does the way the stories of the one percent are told on paper predict the kinds of stories that will be selected in the future to be invited to resettle.”…
