Kesha is all set to burn the world to the ground as the singer took to Instagram, announcing her 20-city North American tour in support of her new album Gag Order, set to go down this fall with special guest Jake Wesley Rogers. The album touches on darker themes like depression, death, control, hope, and emotional exploitation.
Kesha’s Embarking On Her Gag Order Tour
Kesha Rose Sebert, who gained recognition after she was featured on Flo Rida’s number-one single “Right Round”, took to Instagram and announced the much-awaited 20-city tour for her fifth studio album, “Gag Order”.

More Details About Gag Order Tour 2023
Kesha mentioned in her post that presale tickets will be available on Wednesday (May 31) at 10 a.m. local time before the general sale opens to all fans on Friday at 10 a.m. local time. More information is available on Kesha’s website.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, she referred to the new album as “the most intimate thing I’ve ever created.” She continued, “I really dug into some of my uglier emotions and sides of myself that are less fun.”
She added, “It’s scary being vulnerable. The fact that I have compiled an entire record of these emotions, of anger, of insecurity, of anxiety, of grief, of pain, of regret, all of that is so nerve-racking — but it’s also so healing.”
