From the gritty backstreets of Los Angeles, Easter carved a lane in post-punk that balanced raw energy with melodic hooks. Core members Danny Dean, Chad Carrier, and Korky Ollerton drove a sound that found early exposure on MTV and KROQ, helping them tour coast-to-coast throughout the 1980s. Their debut, Easter (1987), released by Chameleon Records with Capitol distribution, remains a touchstone for fans of stripped-down grooves and urgent guitar textures. A 30th-anniversary reissue appeared around 2017 via Lord Cash Pockets Records, reaffirming Easter's enduring impact on the scene. While public live listings through 2020 document a strong history, there are no publicly listed 2025 tour dates at this time. For fans and new listeners alike, Easter offers a compact, unforgettable snapshot of American post-punk from a city that never stops reinventing itself.
