Early life
Hitt was raised in Rhondda, Wales. He has a degree in English literature from Cardiff University.
Modeling
Hitt moved to New York City in 2011 in order to pursue modelling.
The Muscle Club (2008-2010)
Hitt was a member of the London band The Muscle Club.
Drowners (2011-present)
Drowners was created after Hitt moved to New York in order to further pursue his career in modelling. Hitt said in 2013 that, "I moved to New York two years ago and met all these boys through boozing with them, basically. We found out that we all played instruments. We all have a common interest in rock 'n roll music and then could go off on our other tangents." The band name was created when Justin Young called Hitt asking if he had a band together and if he wanted to open for his band The Vaccines which had skyrocketed in success rather quickly. The band had not had a name then and Hitt had been listening to The Drowners by Suede when he picked the name. Hitt described his lyrics as "miserable to an upbeat danceable tune".
Personal life
Hitt dated for two years Fifty Shades of Grey (film) actress Dakota Johnson.
