THE CRANBERRIES

Muireann O'Connell was joined in the studio by the remaining members of The Cranberries, Noel, Mike and Fergal.

They chatted about what it was like finishing their final album without Dolores, their music featuring in smash hit TV show Derry Girls and they shared their special memories of Dolores.

IN THE END

The Cranberries are one of the few bands to remain timeless, or have a sound that transcends the whims of musical fashion. Play one of the Irish rock group’s early anthems such as “Linger” or “Dreams”, and they sound as fresh and emotive as when they captured a generation’s hearts in the 1990's.

And now they've found a whole new audience thanks to Derry Girls:

Now, nearly 30 years after the quartet of singer/songwriter and musician Dolores O’Riordan, co-songwriter and lead guitarist Noel Hogan, bassist Mike Hogan and drummer Fergal Lawler first appeared, they are returning with their eighth and final studio album 'In the End'

After the sad and unexpected passing of Dolores on January 15th 2018, it will be their last - and is among the most complete works they have ever produced.

30 years after forming in Limerick, The Cranberries are set to release their 8th and final album ‘In The End’. The eleven-track record brings a remarkable career to a fitting and powerful closure. Announcing the album, the band has shared the first single ‘All Over Now’ that blends rock, alternative and catchy almost pop-sounding melodies to deliver a classic Cranberries sound.

“I can’t think of a more fitting way to commemorate the first anniversary of Dolores’ passing and to celebrate her life than to announce to the world the release of her final album with the band.”  Eileen O’Riordan, Dolores O’Riordan’s mother.
