LOREN SOKOL BIO

Loren grew up in a family of musicians in South Florida where he first started playing guitar at the age of 12. At 18, he moved to Atlanta to study biopsychology at Oglethorpe University where he joined the theater and the University Singers. It was there that he found a love for the piano as it helped him navigate the most difficult parts of his life. After a semester in Ecuador to develop his skills, Loren returned to the States in his senior year to become the bass section leader, a member of the chamber choir, and the pianist in the school jazz band. In 2020, Loren moved to Boston to study social work at Boston University. Loren joined La Colaborativa later that year and fell in love with the Chelsea community. In 2022, Loren officially moved to Chelsea to better serve the community through clinical service and policy activism.

Music continues to inspire Loren throughout his greatest highs and most challenging lows. He hopes that he can someday integrate music into his therapeutic practices so that he can share music with the people he has come to care so deeply for. Loren has performed in over 7 languages but always finds his roots in Rock n Roll.
