Details:
With 11 Musician of the Year Awards, featured spots on the Gaither Videos and 2 Dove Nominations for the groups in which he’s performed, Steve “Rabbit” Easter can “make it happen” with the banjo, dobro, bass, steel guitar or his special style of vocal presentation. In a world of “specialists”, few emerge possessing numerous talents of the highest caliber managing to "be the best" in a plethora of skills. So, when Steve "Rabbit" Easter displays his talent, something special takes place.
Easter has been a favorite performer both as a soloist and serving in several groups. His instrumental talents are legendary. Born in the Easter clan of singers and musicians, he began to play while most of his friends were learning to ride bicycles, starting on the bass at the age of 7 and playing on his first recording at the age of 8. At 10, his uncle Russell introduced him to a lifelong relationship with the banjo. He was with his family group, The Easter Brothers, for eleven years, and joined The LeFevres in 1976. During his four-year tenure with The Happy Goodman Family, he served as the first and only banjo player for the group. Rusty Goodman gave him the nickname "Rabbit." After a few years as a studio engineer and musician, he joined The Nelons in 1988. In 1989, Steve, Jeff and Sheri Easter announced their plans to travel as a group, which gave Steve new visibility among fans as a vocalist as well as a musician. After leaving Jeff and Sheri he formed his own group “The Rabbit Easter Band”. They received a 1999 Dove Award nomination for Country Recorded Song of the Year for “He Chose To Wear A Crown” from their only project. With Rabbit in their band, the Crabb Family Band won “Favorite Band” in the 1999 Singing News Fan Awards. In September 2001, Steve began a solo ministry which included vocal and instrumental music and witnessing.
In late 2004 he became a member of a new bluegrass gospel band called Dewgrass. The group received a 2005 Dove nomination for Bluegrass Album of the Year with their project “New Beginning”.
Duane Allen of The Oak Ridge Boys says: “RABBIT IS ONE OF THE BEST STEEL PLAYERS IN OUR BUSINESS......HE IS ALSO A MASTER PLAYER ON BANJO AND DOBRO. IT WAS AN HONOR TO HAVE RABBIT GO OUT WITH US.......I HAVE ADMIRED HIS WORK FOR YEARS.......THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT HE IS A GREAT MUSICIAN.”
Steve is married to Sharon, his wife of 27 years. They have a daughter, Molly, age eighteen.
