Two-time GRAMMY-nominated Gospel music sweethearts Jeff & Sheri Easter return with their brand new album Treasure on Feb. 10. The album is preceded by the lead single "Here Comes Jesus," you can pre-order or pre-save the album HERE.

On this Gaither Music release, the Jeff & Sheri share everyday stories of life and love on this recording. With guest performances from Mo Pitney, The Archers and The Sound, Treasure features the classic country style that has made the nine-time DOVE Award winners fan favorites and showcases fresh, musical arrangements and joyful, honest vocals reflective of hope and faith the family has found personally--messages of encouragement they bring to life on this musical gem.

For Jeff and Sheri, gospel music is genetically programmed into their DNA. As members of acclaimed musical families-Jeff's father is one of the Easter Brothers and Sheri's mother is a member of The Lewis Family-they grew up surrounded by the sound of people praising God through their musical gifts.

In August of 1984, both were at the Albert E. Brumley Sundown to Sunup Gospel Singing in Arkansas. Jeff, who was playing bass for the Singing Americans at the time, took the opportunity to reintroduce himself to Sheri's mother Polly; they had met on a previous occasion. Polly introduced Jeff to Sheri and the two were married ten months later. They traveled and performed as part of The Lewis Family for several years. But in 1988 they decided it was time to strike out on their own, and they haven't looked back since.

Jeff & Sheri have been nominated for numerous Dove Awards and won nine. They've also received two career Grammy nominations, and Sheri has been named the Singing News Favorite Alto eleven times and the Singing News Female Vocalist four times. In 2012, Sheri received Alto of the Year by the National Quartet Convention's first annual awards.

Most recently, Jeff & Sheri were awarded the Trio of the Year for the 2021 Singing News Fan Awards. Jeff & Sheri's wall of awards also include three Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music Association Awards, two International Country Gospel Music Association, nine Voice Awards for Female Artist, five Voice Awards for Song/Single of the Year, two Voice Awards for Christian Country Group, four SGM Fan Fair/USGN awards, seven SGN Scoops Diamond Awards, four Hearts Aflame Awards, and three Cash Box awards. They have also participated in the Gaither Homecoming Video Series since 1993.
