The 13th Floor Elevators were an American rock band from Austin, Texas, formed by guitarist and vocalist Roky Erickson, electric jug player Tommy Hall, and guitarist Stacy Sutherland. The band was together from 1965 to 1969, and during that period released four albums and seven singles for the International Artists record label.

The Elevators were the first band to refer to their music as psychedelic rock, with the first-known use of the term appearing on their business card in January 1966. The 2005 documentary You're Gonna Miss Me specifically credits Tommy Hall with coining the term "psychedelic rock", although artists such as the Holy Modal Rounders and the Deep had described their music as "psychedelic" earlier. Their contemporary influence has been acknowledged by 1960s musicians such as Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Peter Albin of Big Brother and the Holding Company, and Chris Gerniottis of Zakary Thaks.

The 13th Floor Elevators debut single "You're Gonna Miss Me", a national Billboard No. 55 hit in 1966, was featured on the 1972 compilation Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965-1968. Seminal punk band Television played the Elevator's song "Fire Engine" live in the mid-1970s. In the 1980s and 1990s, the 13th Floor Elevators influenced bands such as Primal Scream, the Shamen, and Spacemen 3, all of whom covered their songs, and 14 Iced Bears who use an electric jug on their single "Beautiful Child". In 2009, International Artists released a ten CD box set entitled Sign of the 3-Eyed Men, which included the mono and new, alternate stereo mixes of the original albums together with two albums of previously unreleased material and a number of rare live recordings.

Easter Everywhere is the second studio album by the American psychedelic rock band the 13th Floor Elevators. It was released in November 1967, through record label International Artists. It is regarded by many to be one of the finest psychedelic albums ever released

The album features the band's distinctive sound on songs ranging from their own psychedelic "Slip Inside this House" to a psychedelic cover version of Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue". "Levitation" ranks among the band's most iconic songs. As on the previous album, Tommy Hall's electric jug is prominent in the music.

International Artists reissued the band's entire LP catalog in 1979, using new stereo mixes for some albums, presumably due to damaged or missing master tapes. Easter Everywhere, however, was supposedly remastered from the original tapes. For a long time, the album was a hard-to-find collectors' item, until being reissued by Charly Records UK in 1988. Although various CD releases have claimed to contain the original 1967 mixes, all CD reissues of the album have been sourced from inferior vinyl-sourced tapes licensed to Charly Records. The master tapes are today considered missing (or presumed destroyed). In 2009, the original mono version (sourced from vinyl) and a new, alternate stereo version (sourced from out-of-phase tapes with extra reverb) were released as part of the Sign of the 3-Eyed Men box set. Both versions featured different bonus tracks, some that were previously unreleased. The mono version contains missing electric jug overdubs on some tracks that the stereo mix does not have. In 2010, Charly Records re-released the album in mono and stereo together in a limited edition CD set featuring "Fire in My Bones", previously released in 1985 on an unofficial outtakes album and in 1994 on the 1966–1967 Unreleased Masters Collection. The CD reissues have prominent use of noise reduction.

The liner notes for the 2009 Charly re-release state of the differences between the two mixes:

The mono edition of this album is ridiculously rare - surviving IA paperwork suggests only very few were pressed as white label promos for AM radio, and even fewer as mono stock copies (the paperwork suggests as few as 120 copies) that were probably only sold to order. The mono mix offers a more solid sound throughout, with a notably heavier bass mix compared to stereo. There are also some obvious differences: the jug on 'She Lives (In a Time of Her Own)' is far more prominent; 'Levitation' has a double tracked vocal; Roky's harmonica solo on 'I Had to Tell You' is far clearer
