Kesha reclaims her place in the music world with her new song, ‘Praying’ — the initial advance track from RAINBOW, her first album in nearly five years. Kesha wrote ‘Praying’ with Ryan Lewis, Ben Abraham, and Andrew Joslyn; Lewis (Macklemore & Ryan Lewis) produced the track. RAINBOW will be released August 11th on Kemosabe Records/RCA Records.

RAINBOW marks a new beginning for Kesha, one based around inner strength and musical exploration as she achieves her vision for the album by enlisting a roster of collaborators ranging from Eagles of Death Metal to Dolly Parton. Ben Folds produced the title track with Kesha, while Ricky Reed produced and wrote on numerous tracks as well. Wrabel co-wrote a collaboration that features the Dap-Kings horn section. Eagles of Death Metal are featured on two tracks, while Parton guests on a version of her 1980 country chart-topper ‘Old Flames Can’t Hold a Candle to You.’ The track was co-written by Kesha's mother Pebe Sebert, who also has other songwriting credits on ‘Rainbow’.

The year Kesha released her debut album, ANIMAL, Billboard declared her its Hot 100 Artist. Her debut single, ‘TiK ToK,’ named Billboard's #1 Hot 100 Song, was the most played song of 2010 and was the world's top-selling track that year. ANIMAL has sold more than 8 million album equivalents worldwide, and Kesha has sold more than 13 million total album equivalents worldwide.
