EASTER BROTHERS RELEASE FIRST PROJECT IN OVER DECADE

The legendary Easter Brothers have released their first project in over a decade on Pisgah Ridge/Crossroads Records – “I’D DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN.” From the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, siblings Russell, James and Ed have given us smooth family harmonies once again.
Not only does the project include original songs written by the brothers, but also songs penned by the Award-winning Songwriter, Gerald Crabb. “These guys are my Heroes! Singing over 60 years, they gave us one of the church standards, “Thank You, Lord, For Your Blessings On Me”. What an honor for them to record 3 of my songs on this album and including me as co-producer. I love the entire Easter Family with all my heart. Be sure to get your album, It’s Great!!” (Gerald Crabb)
“Let the Hallelujahs Roll,” written by Jared Easter, Linda Thompson and Steve Schramm, has debuted at #9 on the Singing News Bluegrass Chart! Keep listening for great things coming from this amazing family.

James and Jeff Easter: Like Father, Like Son

Like Father, Like Son joins James Easter of the legendary Easter Brothers with his son Jeff, of the Dove Award winning duo Jeff & Sheri Easter for a special recorded event. The result is an album that tells the story of the timeless relationships between both an earthly father and son, all the while reminding us of our important relationship with our Heavenly Father and the gift He gave us in His Son.
Jeff tells us why this album and why now: “I’ve always said my dad is my favorite singer of all and now it is great that I get to honor his voice. He is 81 years old and he is still my inspiration. The things I’ve learned from him growing up still keeps me grounded. I love you, Daddy!”
Sheri Easter wrote the title track in honor of James and Jeff, and co-wrote other songs for the album. “I’m grateful that Jeff had the vision to do this project and for the help that Sheri has been to Jeff,” James shares.
He adds: “One of my favorite scriptures is Romans 8:38-39 where we’re promised that nothing can separate us from the love of God. I am thankful for this promise in my life and in the lives of my children.”
The father/son theme resonated with a couple of Jeff’s friends, who he invited to join him. Jonathan and Jordan Wilburn join on the first single, “Way Up On The Mountain,” and Gerald and Jason Crabb sing the Paul Overstreet/Don Schlitz song “I’ve Got No Rocks to Throw.”
Like Father, Like Son released on November 5 and is available atCrossroads, iTunes, and AmazonMP3.
