 Self Tort came into existence in 2000, although its alter ego, Brian Ralston, has been playing music for 30 years, firstly with "Sirrah" where he played lead guitar, and later with "Mid Life Crisis" where he played keyboards and provided some lead and some backing vocals.
In 2000 Brian decided to go solo as a "one man band" with a view to promoting his own original material, intermixed with covers. A chance opportunity arose for him to do 2 sets of three songs at the Mortdale Hotel in Sydney, Australia. After those set he was booked by the hotel as a resident performer and Self Tort was born. Self Tort continues that residency to this day.
The return to live performance inspired Self Tort to record his own material and in March, 2006 Self Tort's debut CD "N.I.C" was released. Self Tort is now in the process of writing and recording tracks for his next CD as well as working on a number of collaborations with other artists.
 'N.I.C.' is available on CDBaby.com
