Robert Smith
Formed in 1976 by school friends Robert Smith, Lol Tolhurst and Micahel Dempsey, The Cure were one of the first post-punk bands to inject pure pop back into post-Pistols rock.

Now Smith offers the natural offspring of that book, expanding the “day in a life” concept to life as a whole in Driving with Plato. Start with being born.
