Pillar End Hiatus With Kickstarer Campaign For First Album In 5 Years
Grammy-nominated and Dove-Award winning rock band Pillar have announced an end to their five year hiatus with the launch of a Kickstarter campaign to fund their seventh full-length record, planned for release in late 2014.
The campaign, which has already received half of it's funding, runs until 16th February. Pillar members - Rob Beckley, Noah Henson, Kalel Wittig, and Lester Estelle - are reuniting to create a new studio project for the first time in five years. The band's last album was 2009's 'Confessions'.
"We are thrilled to be back as a band and write music that impacts lives, which is something we have missed during our hiatus," shares front man Rob Beckley. "Since our last album, we've all had amazing life changes and are focusing on our families as husbands and fathers - but we’ve had the void of creating music that changes people."
Over the last 15 years, Pillar has rocked fans with their music and message. The band has birthed hit songs like 'Fireproof', 'Bring Me Down' and 'For the Love of the Game'. The latter was used by ESPN for the 2007 World Series promotions. The band was recognized with three Dove Awards and many other nominations including a Grammy nod for their album 'The Reckoning'.
