BROADWAY SINGS P!NK, the seventh concert of the series, is set for tonight, January 19, at the Highline Ballroom. Some of Broadway's brightest talents will sing completely new arrangements of the hits of pop superstar P!NK, accompanied by a full band playing brand new, original orchestrations of the singer's greatest songs. The previous sold-out shows included Adele, Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Stevie Wonder, Amy Winehouse, and Justin Timberlake.

The two concerts will feature cover songs to celebrate the legend's iconic, theatrical songs, including "Sober", "Just Like a Pill", "So What", and "Just Give Me a Reason". The music will be orchestrated and arranged by Joshua Stephen Kartes.

Pink has released seven albums since 2000, selling more than 51 million copies and 95 million singles worldwide. She has received three Grammy Awards, a Brit Award, and six MTV Video Music Awards.
