Album signing: Kesha kept it simple in a plain black dress while promoting her new album Gag Order at a record store in Long Beach, California
Kesha was embraced by her fans and took selfies with them at the event.
Her fifth studio album Gag Order was released in May by Kemosabe Records and RCA Records.
The album produced by Rick Rubin, 60, focused on overcoming trauma and depression related to Kesha's lawsuit with her former producer, Dr. Luke, 49.
Kesha and Dr. Luke, real name Łukasz Sebastian Gottwald, released a joint statement last month stating they had reached a settlement over a series of lawsuits and countersuits dating back to October 2014.
The singer shared the news in an Instagram post revealing the parties agreed to issue a joint statement regarding the resolution.
'Only God knows what happened that night. As I have always said, I cannot recount everything that happened,' Kesha wrote.
She continued: 'I am looking forward to closing the door on this chapter of my life and beginning a new one. I wish nothing but peace to all parties involved.'
The statement was followed by Dr. Luke's message, stating: 'While I appreciate Kesha again acknowledging that she cannot recount what happened that night in 2005. I am absolutely certain that nothing happened.
'I never drugged or assaulted her and would never do that to anyone. For the sake of my family, I have vigorously fought to clear my name for nearly 10 years. It is time for me to put this difficult matter behind me and move on with my life. I wish Kesha well.'
The deal averted an imminent trial over allegations that became a #MeToo cause for Kesha's supporters and came to involve a lineup of music industry luminaries. Lady Gaga, Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry, Pink, Avril Lavigne, Adam Levine and Taio Cruz are among those who gave testimony or sworn statements related to the case.

At the same time, the case raised important legal questions about fame and defamation. The stakes were seen as high enough that media outlets weighed in about pretrial rulings that they worried could help powerful people suppress unflattering reporting.
The court clash between the multiplatinum-selling singer and the Grammy-nominated producer has been playing out since 2014 and looming over both of their careers.
The singer made her name - originally styled Ke$ha - with a series of swaggering, just-try-to-stop-me party anthems, beginning with 2009´s 'TiK ToK.'
Those early hits were produced by Dr. Luke, who founded the record label that signed a Nashville unknown named Kesha Rose Sebert at age 18.
