The concert features music direction by Brandon Sturiale.

What is The Pop Show? Pop decadence done right: Each month we pick a different pop music theme. Irresistible performers collide with the pulsating Pop Show Band and Singers to bring you rare, unexpected, once-in-a-lifetime singer/song pairings, creating a unique and intense auditory experience. Depending on the show, it could be pop. It could be country. It could be 70s soul or 80s glam. It could be an entire concert of Amy Winehouse songs. Or The Doors. Or One Direction. (But probably not One Direction.) Surprise guests, audience giveaways and delirious musical merriment make The Pop Show New York's most unmissable and unpredictable concert event
