No Place Like Home For Mineau

• After a lengthy worldwide search, Beasley Country WQYK/Tampa Bay has located its new morning co-host — and she was a local call! Melanie Mineau is all plugged in next to host Marc Jason and Producer  Kevin Ebel, creating the newly rebranded Morning Krewe with Marc and Melanie, weekdays from 5:30-10am.

Mineau is a St. Petersburg, FL native whose local market experience dates back to her time as the co-host and local producer of The Kane Show on iHeartMedia Top 40 WFLZ, followed by five years with Beasley Rhythmic WLLD (WiLD 94.1). In July 2014 she moved to Washington, DC to co-host the Sarah, Ty & Mel morning show on WRQX. For the past three years Mineau has hosted The Melanie Mineau Show, featured among the top 200 rated podcasts on iTunes.

“As we continue to build a very special team here in Tampa Bay, I feel very lucky to have Melanie back in our building,” said Travis Daily, Operations Manager of Beasley Media Group Tampa. “She is an absolute pro that really gets how to create great content across many platforms and her work ethic is only matched by her partner, Marc. We are very excited about what the future holds for WQYK in 2019. We have the team in place to really give our community a very special live and local radio station that is catered 100% to the audience here in Tampa Bay.”

Mineau remarked, “I’m excited to be back in the building and to be working alongside so many talented people, some of which are longtime friends. I look forward to working with Marc and creating great content for the listeners of Tampa Bay. I’m grateful to the Beasleys and Travis Daily for presenting me with this opportunity. There is nothing better than hosting a morning show at a heritage station in your hometown!”
