Not only is Tyler Hilton, everyone’s favourite wannabe-awesome rocker Chris Keller, back in town for the final season of One Tree Hill, but TV Line reports that he’s gonna be a regular character!

Hilton is reprising his role already in the first episode back, and fans of his real-life musician persona can “look forward to hearing lots of tunes” from the one-who-refers-to-himself-in-third-person. I hope he still does that.

This should come as welcome news to fans, especially since this will be a real blast from the past: Tyler Hilton has not appeared on the show since season 4! Think he’ll still have an inappropriate crush on Haley?
