PILLARS music represents an introspective reflection of the self - past, present and future. Inspired by the Christian pillarists' mission of self-discovery, the Lancaster-raised, now London-based singer has also taken flight on a personal journey of exploration.
PILLARS first made her debut with the sparkling single 'Attacker'. Using vocal harmonies like instruments in themselves, the minimal cut was followed by the haunting track 'You Got This'. Although her 2015 track 'Woman Without Her Love' was nothing short of eargasmic, two years later PILLARS would redefine herself with 'Honest People'. Releasing her EP with the same title, the record is the looking in the mirror, coming to terms with the battles of mental health, as well as the recovery periods. Extremely personal, PILLARS' music can not only be considered her beautiful therapy, but inspiration for others to move through their own struggles.
