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 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee has also distinguished himself in various musical projects, ventured into 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 then founded The Cure in 1976, with Tolhurst on drums, and toured extensively worldwide to promote their groundbreaking albums “Three Imaginary Boys”, “Seventeen Seconds”, “Faith”, and “Pornography”. Lol then switched to keyboards before leaving the band in 1989, after the recording of their masterpiece, “Disintegration”.

This artist of overflowing creativity has since settled in Southern California, where he has composed, recorded, and toured with his band, Levinhurst. Tolhurst also participated in a memorable reunion tour with The Cure in 2011, where they performed together for the first time in over twenty years. Tolhurst then wrote his first published book, “Cured - The Tale Of Two Imaginary Boys”. This globally acclaimed memoir traced the journey of his life and art to date.

Lol’s creative adventures also continued recently after an unexpected encounter with his old friend Budgie, former member of Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Creatures. In 2022, the two teamed up to create the podcast series “Curious Creatures”, in which they explore the enduring legacy and contemporary relevance of post-punk and welcome personalities from all walks of life for
