Out Damned Spot began as an independent study project in the sound recording program at City College of San Francisco. The director of the Sound Recording Arts program, Terri Winston, suggested that Anthony and Trinity work together and that they enlist Andrew, another recording student, on drums. Justin, the bassist for the band, was found through a Craigslist post. He was the only person the group auditioned and they immediately found that their diverse musical influences melded into a unique sound that was difficult to classify. 

In addition to singing, songwriting, and co-production; Trinity provided all the graphic and web design for the group. This long term collaboration was a life-changing experience that enriched both Trinity's musical understanding and her empathy. 

The band was most prolific between late 2004-2008, eventually splitting in early 2013.
