Egg hunts, ‘hideous’ pastel outfits and more: Jordan Davis remembers Easter in Louisiana

Easter coming up on Sunday brings back a flood of memories for Jordan Davis — though he admits he doesn’t treasure every single one.  

“We would always have the Easter egg hunt before church,” he recalls. “My mom, she would dress us in these ridiculous, pastel-colored — good Lord, I’m sorry for saying this, but the worst part about Easter for me is some of the photos that I have of what my mom dressed us in. It was hideous.”

Hideous outfits aside, Jordan remembers childhood Easters in Louisiana fondly.

“For me early on, and probably like with a lot of kids, Easter was just another Sunday where it was just a very mini, mini Christmas,” he says. “You know, we would get some candy. Every once in a while, we’d get a present, something we wanted.”

“You know, we’d go to church, and everybody looked great, [they’d] wear the new dress or the guys had these crazy ties on or something like that. And it really wasn’t until my high school years I realized how special that holiday was,” he adds. 

With four kids of his own now, ranging in age from 10 months to 6 years, it’s likely to be an eventful Easter at the Davis household.

Jordan does seem to have a bit of time off, since his next show isn’t until April 11 at Boots in the Park in San Diego.
