The Color Agent was founded in 2014 with the mission to amplify LGBTQIA+ representation in mainstream music. Our platform brings together top talent, creators, and artists from the LGBTQIA+ community, with a focus on driving cultural change through curated content and community.

At TCA, we believe in putting talent first and strive to shift the way the entertainment industry hears, sees, and feels the LGBTQIA+ community.

TCA EVENTS

Since 2015, The Color Agent (TCA) has had the privilege of forecasting the new wave of mainstream talent from the Community+ by hosting an official showcase at SXSW. Past performances have included up and coming artists such as Jozzy (Columbia Records) , Silvana Imam (Grammis Award Winner), Bre-Z (Drama Series: Empire/All American), Gizzle (Grammy Nominated) and more. TCA discovers artists who are ready to showcase their artistry as an official performer on a career changing platform and has played an important role in increasing representation at the festival annually!
