United Talent Agency has signed LA-based DJ, creator, and emerging artist Rio Amor for worldwide live music and touring representation. This marks her first signing with a major global agency.
Rio has been DJing professionally since the age of 13, racking up stages at Lollapalooza and Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival, twice.
She is currently Lil Yachty’s official DJ and is actively touring the U.S. with Concrete Boys. In February 2026, It’s Us Vol. 2, the second Concrete Boys mixtape featuring Rio, dropped to fan fanfare.
Earlier this year, she sold out her first headline show at The Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles, where she surprised the crowd by bringing out Lil Yachty for a live performance. Outside music, Rio has appeared in campaigns for GOLF WANG and a Levi’s x Jordan collaboration alongside Spike Lee.
The deal builds on UTA’s growing momentum in signing boundary-pushing acts for global touring. The agency recently inked Venezuelan rock band Rawayana and KT Tunstall for worldwide representation. With new music in the works, Rio Amor is clearly building toward something much bigger.
Takeaways
UTA doesn’t just sign artists, it places bets on cultural trajectories. Signing Rio Amor at this stage, before a solo debut project is even out, says a lot.
She’s already proven she can sell out rooms, command festival stages, and move within elite creative circles, and UTA is now the engine behind scaling all of that globally. If her upcoming music lands the way her DJ sets do, this could be one of the more significant early-career signings of 2026.
With no solo music on streaming platforms yet, does signing with UTA now signal that a debut project is imminent? Can Rio Amor successfully transition from touring DJ and collective member to solo headliner on a global scale?
