Kesha will embark on a 26-date North American tour for her upcoming album High Road (out January 31st), the singer announced on Tuesday.
The route will kick off this spring at the Smart Financial Centre in Sugar Land, Texas, on April 23rd, and will make stops in Phoenix, Los Angeles, Denver, Atlanta, New York and more with a final show in Windsor, Ontario, on June 5th.
The tour will feature support from Big Freedia (who collaborated with Kesha on her single “Raising Hell”) on select dates.
Kesha had this to say about the tour in a statement to Rolling Stone: “While shaking my ass at the stroke of midnight, ringing in the new year, new decade, with my new album coming this month, I thought to myself, ‘Damn. I think the best medicine for happiness and having a beautiful life is to celebrate it while I have it, with the people I love most. And ummm…shake my ass. As often as possible.’ So…this is my HIGH ROAD TOUR announce!!! If you wanna come shake ur body and hear the new jams LIVE, this is the place to do it! And, on the HIGH ROAD TOUR, you will have not one, but two grand supreme expert body movers — BIG FREEDIA and YOURS TRULY — ME!!!!! Come see us on tour this Spring!!!!!!”
Presale for the tour begins Wednesday, January 8th. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, Jan 10th. Every ticket purchased online will include a CD copy of High Road.
