THE VILLAGE DOOR

Destin


John Wehner has a background as a musician and has played drums since age 11 and spent a decade playing up and down Bourbon Street which enabled him to put together some celebrated house bands. The first of these was Groove Tube; That band set the tone for the future of the club. I worked all day, doing daytime duties and then played on stage six hours a day, six nights a week and I would manage the club from the stage.

In 1996, he created the Dream Band, a dynamic show band with a horn section that could rival Chicago and Earth, Wind and Fire. In November 2002 Wehner was featured on the cover of Nightclub and Bar magazine.

He also operated his own professional recording studio and a production company, Door Productions. The first CD he produced was Jeff Chaz' Give Me My Guitar - Wehner describes Chaz' music as 'funky blues with killer horns and a smokin' rhythm section.' Other releases included Tomato's Jump Into My Fire and the Dream Band's...First Contact.
