Music video


The band released a music video teaser for "Hit and Run" on June 8.[9] It was officially released on June 13, 2012 and was directed by Travis Kopach.[10] Speaking about the music video, Kyle Even said, "The whole idea behind the video was that we live in this black and white world, but there was one girl who knew what color was and she shows us that it's ok to be different. It starts a contagious array and now the whole world is in color."[3]
