Trent Moorman—Stranger music columnist and Line Out blogger—has also written for Vice, Rolling Stone, Tape Op, Portland Mercury, The Jung Society Quarterly, and Thresholds Quarterly (School of Metaphysics). He won a New Millennium Writing Award for a piece about running the course of the original marathon in Greece. Trent plays drums for Mad Rad, Fresh Espresso, Metal Chocolates, Don't Talk to the Cops!, and he provides the bumper music for CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360 Show. Trent is heavily influenced by dream psychology, and he can often be found late at night scouring the edge of Elliott Bay by the aquarium looking for a mystic who plays him boombox prophecies.
