Pillar is comprised of Rob Beckley (vocals), Taylor Carroll (drums), Noah Henson (guitar), and Rich Gilliland (bass). These Christian rockers with an alt-metal edge have been honing their infectious sound since 1998 while attending Ft. Hays State University in northwestern Kansas. A deal with Flicker was inked in 2000 after the band’s self-released debut, “Metamorphosis”, impressed the label. Within months, Pillar followed things up with “Above”. Their first single, “Open Your Eyes,” was popular on the college charts, earning “Above” nearly 60,000 in sales. Pillar also earned the Best Rock Band award at the annual Dove Awards in 2001.

A year later, Pillar relocated to Tulsa, OK, and released “Fireproof”. MCA picked up the band and reissued the energetic sophomore effort in 2003. However, MCA shut down shortly thereafter and Pillar returned to Flicker, and released their next album, “Where Do We Go From Here”, in 2004.

Their other albums include "The Reckoning", "For the Love of the Game", and "Confessions".
