CHORDS & COCKTAILS are pop-up concerts that Lyric periodically hosts at various locations in NYC. Our idea is to introduce working professionals to beautiful music, like-minded friends, and new locations, varying from co-work spaces, restaurants, art galleries, to private residences. We also partner with businesses and organizations that help serve our mission.
