Wayne and Jeanne, featured with The Villagers, played live concerts, resorts, concert clubs and colleges on the entire east coast and throughout the mid-south. They played at the Myrtle Beach Pavilion for the first time in May of '65. The Villagers first record, "You Don't Know What You've Got Until You Lose It" was recorded in May 1966 and was number one during the summer of 1966. Jim Owens, the Villagers manager, had the band booked for the summer of '66 and consecutive summers. (This inspired Jim Owens to write and produce the stage play, "The Summer of '66" which ran for two seasons at the Crook and Chase Theater in Myrtle Beach starting on May 2, 1999. A musical stage production portraying The Villagers life and music of the 60's.) They moved from Charleston, South Carolina to Charlotte, North Carolina where they filmed the next two seasons of The Village Square TV show, and later to Atlanta, Georgia in 1967 to film the shows. At that time The Village Square was being seen in over 50 National television markets throughout the country. Today, Wayne and Jeanne, for over 50 years together as husband and wife, still perform live the classics of 60's, 70's and 80's Rock, Pop, Blues, Motown Country and Jazz.
