AceShowbiz - Ke$ha is going on a tour this summer. She broke the news on her social media. "Will I see you guys there? It's going to be fucking crazy!" the 29-year-old singer said to her fans in a video message. "And I'm playing songs you've never heard me play before, and songs I may never play again, only a couple shows."
"The day has come that I, now, present to you, Kesha and The Creepies," she added in another message. "This project and upcoming tour comes from my deep eternal love of dirty rock & roll and country music. I thrive from making and performing music, and much like a flower with no sun, my soul slowly dies when I don't get to create and perform. So, for a short ride and in mostly small intimate venues, I will be performing a new creepy creation. It's been too long."
"Until I can release my own music I will be reinventing some of my old songs and some of my favorite songs from my musical idols. I've hand picked songs from artists that have helped shape who I am and the music I make today. I have missed you, all of you, so if you would like to boogie, come join us. The time has come to get creepy ... exclusive fan pre-sale starting NOW!! Go to www.keshasparty.com and use password: FUKTHEWORLD."
The tour comes amid her lawsuit against Dr. Luke. She accused the producer of sexually assaulting her and she asked a judge to get her out of her contract with his recording company, but her request was denied in court. It didn't stop her from making music. She recently released new single "True Colors" with Zedd.
However, Dr. Luke still has a hold over Kesha. Earlier this year, she almost couldn't perform at the Billboard Music Awards. The producer blocked her before he eventually lifted his ban. She also could only release "True Colors" after it got approved by the producer.
