From the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina to the west coast and all points in between, America is being treated to a special blend of gospel music by The Easter Brothers. This trio of brothers are helping to forge a new frontier in gospel music for their unique style. Some would call their style of singing ”bluegrass gospel”, while others have termed it “traditional country gospel”. Whichever name you choose to call it, you will have to agree that it is music in its purest form.

It’s music with feeling, depth, sensitivity and backed with a solid message. There is a special, magical feeling one gets when listening to the Easter Brothers sing. You are transformed as you listen to their clear style of singing back to the days of simple times and purity in thinking. Perhaps this is what stands out most in their music. It is clear, pure and simple. Not complicated by musical arrangements that confuse the intent of the songs; but good, honest simplicity. Their fabulous harmony, augmented by the purity of their instruments is further enhanced by the clear cut message of faith and inspiration that mark their songs.

Since the inception of the Easter Brothers over 60 years ago, their music and sound has carried a viable commercial appeal. They have recorded throughout the years for various major record labels, beginning with King Records, a major country label during the 60’s, and later processing to QCA and their own Commandment label.

The reputation of the Easter Brothers as inspired songwriters of gifted material grew daily, and they became known as some of the most prolific tunesmith’s in the gospel music profession. Many of their songs were recorded by other groups and have become standards. Among them are “Thank You Lord For Your Blessings On Me,” “The Darkest Hour,” “They’re Holding Up The Ladder,” “He’s The Rock I’m Leaning On,” “Help Me Stand Lord,” “Jesus, You’ve Just Made My Day,” “Heart That Will Never Break Again,” “Please Don’t Tell My Daddy,” “Hand Me Downs” – all just a few of the hundreds of songs penned by the three brothers. Their songs will live on in the hearts and minds of gospel music lovers for many generations to come.
