Michael Brewer & Tom Shipley are truly two who work as one. Their trademark harmonies, intertwined acoustic guitars, and socially-conscious lyrics carved a unique niche in America's soundboard in the 1970s. Their thoughtful, melodic and appealing music proved to be both a complement and an antidote to the harsher, more electric sound of contemporary rock bands of their time. Brewer & Shipley's Top 10 hit "One Toke Over The Line" was largely responsible for introducing them to the masses, yet their music careers neither began nor ended with this one song. Michael Brewer and Tom Shipley have created timeless music that has spanned over 40 years. This is a look at their story.
