About Trust the Wizard

TRUST THE WIZARD is a Black Texas Femme who curates your playground using the soul of House, the grit of Rock, and the shimmer of Disco into an electrifying sonic identity that is fiercely her own. Raised on everything from Funk LPs to rebellious guitar riffs, she builds sets that feel both nostalgic and radically new. Her mixes glide between driving basslines, soulful vocals, and raw, psychedelic textures, creating a dancefloor that’s equal parts groove and edge. Known for her fearless transitions, campy spirit and magnetic presence, she transforms every room into a space of freedom, celebration, and connection. Through her chemistry, she amplifies Black queer expression and honors her roots in the rebels, dreamers, and dancefloor visionaries who came before her.
