Lol TOLHURST
Lol Tolhurst (United Kingdom) a founding member of The Cure – one the most influential, successful and critically acclaimed bands of all time. The musician and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee has also performed music with various projects, became an author with the release of his 2016 memoir C
ured – The Tale Of Two Imaginary Boys,
and co-created the podcast
Curious Creatures,
in which with
his old friend Budgie from Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Creatures, they explore post punk’s enduring legacy and contemporary relevance and welcome luminaries from all walks of life for revealing yet relaxed conversation. Tolhurst released his second book,
GOTH: A History
(2023, Hachette Books), that features stories and anecdotes from Tolhurst’s personal memories as well as the musicians, magicians and artists, who made goth an inevitable and enduring movement. The fascinating deep dive into the history of Goth explores creative giants like The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Bauhaus, Joy Division, and additional artists that offered a place of refuge for the misfits of the 80s and ever since.
