Oakland Eaves is sprinkling a little folk and jazz over Christian music.

About Oakland Eaves

Hi there! I'm Esther, a singer-songwriter based in Leeds in the north of England. My mission is to learn how to have a truly authentic relationship with God and to help others with this too. Through songwriting, I work through my questions and struggles, surrendering my fears to Him, and learning how deep the Father's love truly is!

I'm a singer, cellist and pianist and I like to play around with other instruments too. Outside of music, I like trees and triathlon, just in case you were wondering! I love writing worship music which draws on classical, folk and jazz influences. These aren't really congregational sing-alongs - they're more introspective and reflective, but you can definitely sing along if you'd like!

The name 'Oakland Eaves' came to me randomly over a decade ago and I've never forgotten it. All of a sudden, the words kept turning up repeatedly in the most unexpected of places and I felt God was telling me it was time to get that music out to the world, so here I am! For me, the word 'oakland' symbolises a life beautifully rooted in God's love, and it also represents the strength and growth which is built upon those roots. Eaves extend beyond the edges of a home, so for me this symbolises how God's love flows forth from us into the world around us.
