About CUREPEDIA

CUREPEDIA offers a unique look at The Cure, organized from A to Z. It includes hundreds of entries, covering band members (current and past), trivia, tours, summaries of every album, song, films, essays and more.

Featuring a foreword by the band Mogwai, the book is written by British music journalist and author Simon Price. CUREPEDIA also includes original illustrations from longtime The Cure collaborator and artist Andy Vella.

But, don’t worry… If you don’t happen to be one of our lucky winners, you can still get a copy! CUREPEDIA is on sale November 7th from Dey Street Books.

Fill out the form below for a chance to win an advance copy of CUREPEDIA, the ultimate book for fans of The Cure from Dey Street Books, an imprint of HarperCollins and a pair of tickets to see The Cure at Riot Fest on Sunday, September 17th.
