The folk rock duo Brewer & Shipley will perform at Leach Theatre as part of their 50th anniversary tour. Since the 70s, Brewer & Shipley have been writing songs and performing together, and now they’re performing at Missouri S&T.
The duo will perform at 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 8, at Leach Theatre in Castleman Hall, located at the corner of 10th and Main streets in Rolla.
Brewer & Shipley are known for their Top 10 song “One Toke Over The Line,” which was released in 1970. The duo have continued to demonstrate their vocal harmonies and guitar work, which accompany the lyrics that reflect the social concerns of their generation. Brewer & Shipley landed three singles on the Billboard charts and released more than 10 albums.

They are outstanding. I have been friends with Tom Shipley for 35 years. He has a strong relationship with Missouri S&T.
