After a brief stint in Northern California, his family moved back to the Palm Springs area, where Hilton wrote his first song about a girl named Rhian, a girl he knew from high school. When his family moved to Coachella Valley during his high school years, Hilton started a band with some of his classmates. He later began going to open mic nights and local coffee shops to play his own music. At the age of 16, Hilton called a local radio station in Los Angeles that was giving away Jonny Lang concert tickets and, while on the phone with DJs Mark & Brian (of The Mark & Brian radio show), he sang Jonny Lang’s song Breakin’ Me a cappella. The DJs were so impressed with his talent that they gave him a spot at the radio station’s Christmas concert. Word of the performance reached Maverick Records (owned by Warner Bros. Records), who signed Hilton to a record deal at the age of 18. He also appeared in Taylor Swift’s music video for Teardrops on My Guitar as Swift’s love interest.
