Hit The Lights have been through their share of ups and downs over the years, including the loss of vocalist Colin Ross shortly after their debut This Is A Stickup… hit stores. Since that time, Ross has appeared with the band a few times when they were able to play near their hometown in Ohio, but he has largely been unheard of for the last few years. Now, according to band frontman Nick Thompson, fans unable to see the band’s original lineup will be given one last opportunity on the group’s upcoming winter tour with A Loss For Words. You can view a message from Nick announcing Ross’ return, as well as a complete list of tour dates, below:

We are pleased to announce that our friend Colin Ross, the original vocalist of Hit The Lights, will be joining us for our December East Coast tour with A Loss For Words, With The Punches and State Champs. Our set will still include songs from all of the albums that we’ve released, but we’re stoked that Colin will be out to once again lend his vocal abilities on some oldies but goodies. We know that some people may be upset that we’re only doing this only for our December tour, but we had the window of opportunity to make this happen and we did! This tour is going to be about fun for us, our fans and we’re just happy that we have a chance to make some HTL history along the way. With that being said, check out the dates below and get your tickets now. We’re playing some tiny venues and it’s going to fucking ROCK. Pre-order bundles are still available here:http://soundrink.com/collections/hit-the-lights in which you get some free stuff, including a previously unreleased song.
