Washington DC trio, SHAED have announced The Colorful Campaign in partnership with Capital Pride Alliance and The Ally Coalition. The campaign aims to raise funds for the GivePride365 which provides resources for LGBTQ+ organizations in need. Streaming revenue from SHAED’s “Colorful” artist collaborations, remixes, and features, along with partnerships with local business and organizations, and their events will all help to raise money for the fund. 

SHAED’s Max Ernst shared, “We wrote this song to hopefully reach the ears of people who are LGBTQ+ and struggling (like I did) to embrace who they are. We wanted the song to have an impact on the LGBTQ+ community in our hometown of Washington DC so we partnered with Capital Pride Alliance to launch the Colorful Campaign. This campaign raises money for LGBTQ+ organizations in DC through remixes of our song “Colorful” featuring LGBTQ+ artists, and through partnerships with local businesses.”
