My Ruin, a Los Angeles-based hard rock band, was formed in 1999 by lead singer Tairrie B in the wake of her former band Tura Satana, which was previously known as Manhole.
Although originally intended as a solo project for her debut album ‘Speak and Destroy’, My Ruin quickly became a band when she met guitarist and co-songwriter Mick Murphy. The band has been subject to various line-up changes since forming.
