Robert James Smith (born April 21, 1959 in Blackpool, England), a guitarist, vocalist and songwriter, has been the lead singer of British post-punk band The Cure since its founding in 1976. NY Rock calls him "pop culture’s unkempt poster child of doom and gloom", and describes his songs as "somber introspection over lush, brooding guitars"
Influenced by The Beatles, Nick Drake, Jimi Hendrix and David Bowie, he started playing guitar at the age of 12. Smith has played the 6 and 12-string guitars; 4 and 6 string bass guitars; double bass; keyboards; and violin.
Early years

Robert is the third of four children born to Alex and Rita Smith. His siblings are Richard, Margaret, and Janet. Janet is married to Porl Thompson, the lead guitarist of The Cure. Smith was raised Catholic and went to Notre Dame Middle School and St Wilfrid"s Comprehensive School in Crawley as a teenager. Smith met Mary Poole in school when he was 14 years old. They have been together since and were married in 1988. Smith wrote "Lovesong" as a wedding present to Mary. Smith was an accomplished student who maintained high marks, but his primary focus quickly became his music. As a teenager, he began to challenge what he felt was arbitrary authority, such as by wearing a full-length fur coat to school and by holding a benefit concert for a homosexual instructor who had been fired.Hoodies Sweatshirts Longsleeve tshirts, Lycra tops, Punk Rock Tshirts,at RockTshirtsPunk.com punk clothes, Heavy Metal T shirts, Emo Clothing, Goth clothes, Band T-shirts, Music Tshirts, rock t-shirts, Punk rock T-shirts, Punk rock Hoodies, Rock Hoodies, Cool t shirts, Punk Rock Cool clothes, Oi t-sirts Classic Rock Clothing 60s-70s-80s-90s Alternative Modern Pop Rock Music, Concert Wear Clothing.
