LOL TOLHURST

Lol Tolhurst is best known as one of the founding members of The Cure, one of the most influential, popular and critically acclaimed bands of all time. This musician, inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, has also made his mark on various musical projects, turned to writing with the 2016 publication of his memoir “Cured - The Tale Of Two Imaginary Boys”, and co-created the podcast “Curious Creatures”.

Tolhurst met his childhood friend Robert Smith at the age of 5, at school in the London suburb of West Sussex. They went on to found The Cure in 1976, with Tolhurst on drums, and toured the world extensively to promote their groundbreaking albums “Three Imaginary Boys”, “Seventeen Seconds”, “Faith” and “Pornography”. Lol then moved to keyboards before leaving the band in 1989, after the recording of their masterpiece, “Disintegration”.

This artist, with his boundless creativity, has since settled in Southern California, where he has composed, recorded and toured with his band, Levinhurst. Tolhurst also took part in a memorable reunion tour with The Cure in 2011, when they performed together for the first time in more than twenty years.

Tolhurst then wrote his first published book, “Cured - The Tale Of Two Imaginary Boys”. These memoirs, acclaimed around the world, traced the course of his life and art up to the present day. Lol's creative adventures have also continued recently following an unexpected reunion with his old friend Budgie, former member of Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Creatures.
