Eliza Oakes explores the sense of belonging in her newest single “Heaven In Your Eyes”

Eliza Oakes’ latest single “Heaven In Your Eyes” serves as the official introduction to her upcoming EP, and follows the story of hope being a precious commodity in our uncertain world.

Eliza Oakes’ newest song is not just a song – it’s a testament to Eliza’s multifaceted talent as a songwriter and arranger – with additional production from Chris Hyson of Snow Poet fame, it’s a track that immerses in rich tapestry of live instrumentation, gritty string arrangements, shuffling drums, and smoky piano chords that come together to create a esthetic landscape that’s both stirring and evocative.

Eliza’s vocals steal the spotlight, with her voice soaring atop an emotional depth that delivers a heartfelt message of comfort and empowerment. Eliza Oakes’ vision extends beyond the music itself, where lyrics are a direct call to fellow artists and creators, urging them to trust their unique voices and intentions, despite an industry often fixated on algorithms and metrics.

“Lyrically, it’s a direct call to creatives and community in an industry that’s focused on its algorithms and numbers, to trust your own voice, intention and sense of belonging,” Eliza says about the song. “It’s an attempt to ignite our own ‘inner guide’, and discover an intrinsic intuition and purpose. Drawing on personal themes of spirituality, optimism, self-worth and empowerment, it’s a continuing message to my past, present and future self.”

Drawing from personal themes of spirituality, optimism, self-worth, and empowerment, this new song from Eliza resonates as a message to her past, present, and future self, echoing the struggle for self-discovery and purpose. “Heaven In Your Eyes” is just a small taste of her eagerly await her forthcoming EP.
