His parents [[Vincent Lane|Vincent]] and [[Amanda Lane|Amanda]] allowed Trent, like all their children, to do as he pleased in his youth. A few quirks of his childhood were living in a tent for six months, waiting for someone to invite him back into the house, and having gone through an ‘orange skin phase’.
His parents [[Vincent Lane|Vincent]] and [[Amanda Lane|Amanda]] allowed Trent, like all their children, to do as he pleased in his youth. A few quirks of his childhood were living in a tent for six months, and having gone through an ‘orange skin phase’. Amanda and Trent remember the tent affair differently: Amanda thinks Trent was just playing around and later lost interest, while Trent was actually waiting for someone to invite him back into the house and sounds upset that nobody ever did.


When he was twelve Trent met [[Jesse Moreno]] around the corner from summer school. The two would become best friends, or ‘musical soulmates’. Initially they played angst-driven power pop and “Weird Al” Yankovic covers on acoustic guitars given to them by Trent’s father, a former musician in his younger days. They later changed over to electric when they realized it would be louder.

The band Mystik Spiral became complete in high school with the addition of [[Max Tyler]] & [[Nicholas Campbell]]. During his time Lawndale High School Trent was scheduled for some classes alongside [[Tommy Sherman]] though like the football player he “may of missed a few classes.

According to [[Is It College Yet?]], he even missed his own graduation.


After high school Trent has continued fronting the Spiral and writing lyrics. With the Spiral he mainly plays brew pubs and grunge clubs though they have been known to play high school house parties for the right price and even a child’s birthday party to get out of a ticket. He’s never known to have been formally employed in a conventional job but once wrote a jingle for [[Happy Herb|Happy Herb's]] used cars in exchange for twenty bucks, an hour of studio time and a set of new tires. He accepts that he’ll probably end up a townie playing Doors covers but at least he’s doing what he loves now and that’s all that matters.

He’s never known to have been formally employed in a conventional job but once wrote a jingle for [[Happy Herb|Happy Herb's]] used cars in exchange for twenty bucks, an hour of studio time and a set of new tires; this was a deep, dark secret he didn't want anybody knowing.

He has a girlfriend called [[Monique]], who is also in a band; the two break up and get back together on a regular basis. He is also friends with [[Axl]], who runs the local tattoo parlour.

When Jane was applying for colleges, Trent took a hostile attitude and said she was selling out. He later apologised and admitted he didn't think that really: he was upset that she was leaving home and worried he might lose her. Jane reassured him that she wouldn't let him "slack off" being her brother.
