DETAILS: 

Lol Tolhurst is a musician, Author, and performer. He is best known as a founding member of The Cure.

Formed in 1976, The Cure is one of its generation’s most influential, successful, and critically acclaimed bands. As The Cure’s drummer, Lol toured the globe many times over, supporting the ground-breaking albums Three Imaginary Boys, Seventeen Seconds, Faith, and Pornography. He took on keyboard duties in the mid-eighties until he departed from the band in 1989, at the time of their masterwork Disintegration.

Lol’s first book was published in 2016. Cured – The Tale Of Two Imaginary Boys is a memoir that draws together the threads of his life and art. Following his memoir Cured, GOTH is a fascinating deep dive into the dark Romanticism of Goth music, a misunderstood genre and culture. 

GOTH is an entertaining and engaging historical memoir of the genre of Goth music and culture, exploring creative giants like The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Bauhaus, Joy Division, and many more great bands that offered a place of refuge for the misfits of the 80s and ever since.
In GOTH, Tolhurst examines the legacy of goth music, and shows how its influence can still be seen to this day across music, film, TV, visual arts, social media, and so much more concluding “Why Goth matters!”
