Wasserman Rebrands as THE•TEAM Amid Agency Sale

WASSERMAN

Call it Team Was.

Wasserman, formerly the namesake of its founder, Casey Wasserman, has rebranded as THE•TEAM after Wasserman put his music, sports and marketing agency up for sale following the release of emails linking him to Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein.

Since then, multiple music clients, most notably Chappell Roan, have either cut ties with or distanced themselves from him and Wasserman Music.

“As of today, Wasserman is rebranding as THE•TEAM and you can now find us at the.team,” reads a post on social media. “For 24 years, this company has been shaped by our work, our people and our unifying belief in the power of sports, music and entertainment. That philosophy remains the foundation of who we are—and where we’re going. We go as we always have: together.”

“To our partners, team members, friends and community, thank you,” the music division posted. “While our dedication to the service of our clients remains unchanged, we have a new name. We’d like to reintroduce you to The•Team.”

Wasserman, majority-owned by Providence Equity, employs 4,000 people, 400 of whom work for the music agency. The company’s music clients include Kendrick Lamar, SZA, Travis Scott, Kenny Chesney, Coldplay, BLACKPINK, Noah Kahan, Tyler, the Creator and Fred Again...

Wasserman, the grandson of legendary Hollywood mogul Lew Wasserman, entered the music space when he purchased the live music business of Paradigm Talent Agency in 2021. Wasserman Media President Mike Watts has assumed day-to-day control of the business pending the sale.
