Our once-monthly Open Mics (2nd Thurs) are mainly Acoustic, but most styles of music are welcome. All talented artists are invited to take the stage and enjoy one of the most talked about music venues in Westchester.

Vanini on fiddle and Rob Stein on Steel. The night will feature songs from Lyonhart's catalog, including some new tunes.

— Myra Friedman, Author "Buried Alive"
Authorized Janis Joplin Biography
“Lyonhart sings of life and relationships, injustice and irony, desperation and triumph, striving and betrayal, folly and achievement...having a stash of unreleased Lyonhart tunes is like having a private treasure.”
— Irv Yarg, The Woodstock Times
