Pillar is an American Christian rock band from Tulsa, consisting of members Rob Beckley, Noah Henson, Michael "Kalel" Wittig, and Lester Estelle II.

Soon after the release of Original Superman, Pillar became noticed by Flicker Records, who signed them in mid 2000.

In 2002, Noah Henson took over guitar duties and Pillar released their breakthrough album, Fireproof.

[10] The album featured multiple hits, including "Bring Me Down", and, "Frontline" which topped the charts for months, and was also one of their most popular songs.

The Reckoning received a Grammy Award nomination December 6, 2007 for Best Rock or Rap Gospel Album, a first for the band.

ESPN used the new Pillar song, "For the Love of the Game," during montages highlighting the 2007 World Series on its program Baseball Tonight.

They also had a tour for For the Love of the Game from February to April 2008, with Brooke Barrettsmith, Wavorly, and Building 429.

Kalel was not seen playing bass for Pillar, but was being filled in forby Josh Gleave (formerly with Jeremy Riddle).

The next Pillar drummer, Taylor Carroll, joined around March 2009, after the recording process of the new album.

[citation needed] Their cover of Collective Soul's song, "Shine", was released as the third single from the album.

During this show, Taylor Caroll was not playing with the band because by that time he had left to pursue a solo career.
