In Full Color with Adam Rye
In active development for WMNF 88.5 FM Tampa, Saint Petersburg, Sarasota. Proposed time: Monday mornings from 3:00 AM to 6:00 AM.
Bringing full-spectrum radio to Tampa Bay
Radio is traditionally called an audio medium, but music has always been how we paint our worlds. In Full Color takes its name from my song about moving out of monochrome survival mode and into vibrant, unapologetic living.
Following guest appearances and co-hosting on WMNF, this show is currently being developed for 88.5 FM. The plan is a weekly, three-hour early morning journey between Bodyrock and The Morning Show with Jay. It will celebrate queer trailblazers, neurodivergent visionaries, disabled musicians, and Florida independent artists, connecting cultural architects like Big Mama Thornton to modern icons like Chappell Roan while lifting up local Tampa Bay talent.
What we are building for the airwaves
Glittergrit Grooves
A planned weekly dive into independent physical media, spotlighting vinyl releases and championing local shops like Daddy Kool Records in Saint Petersburg.
Outlaw Outings
A weekly community calendar highlighting independent stages (such as the outdoor courtyard at Jannus Live and intimate DIY spots) alongside local mutual aid events.
Too Loud
A dedicated interview spotlight for creators, organizers, and musicians who refuse to shrink themselves down to fit into someone else's box.
Studio Swag Showcase
Because WMNF streams live video, my goal is to invite local bands, independent record stores, and grassroots non-profits to send their t-shirts to the studio so I can wear and showcase their work on air.
Representing local creators on air
As we finalize launch details with station leadership, independent bands, venues, and community organizations will be invited to send shirts to wear during the live video broadcast:
