Kesha has announced that she will be touring some small, intimate venues across America throughout August with a brand new project, Kesha and the Creepies.

The singer is still stuck in a complicated legal situation following allegations of abuse against her former producer Dr Luke, and is currently still contracted to Dr Luke’s parent label, Sony. However, she says that the new project is a way to get around it.

“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,” she writes on Instagram. “I’ve hand-picked songs from artists that have helped shape who I am and the music I make today.”

That music maybe isn’t what you’d typically expect from Kesha: apparently, she’ll be tapping into her “deep eternal love of dirty rock’n’roll and country music”.

“I thrive from making and performing music,” she writes, “and much like a flower with no sun, my soul slowly dies when I don’t get to create and perform.”

Although she has been able to release a song as a featured artist with EDM producer Zedd on their single “True Colors”, Kesha hasn’t released her own original music since her legal difficulties began. Recently, however, she covered Bob Dylan at the 2016 Billboard music awards, despite initial uncertainty from her label.
