Background

Biographical / historical:

For more than 40 years, Robby Beyers shot nearly every LSJUMB football halftime show, as well as many rallies, road trips and other sporting events, amassing a stunning archive of more than 180,000 photographs that are treasured by the hundreds of musicians, Dollies and Trees who rocked out in range of his lens. Beyers ('80, MS '82, PhD '89) died April 12, 2021, at 62 from ALS.

The LSJUMB was formed in 1893, in 1963 became student-led, and in 1972 went from an all-male band to co-ed.
