Dolores O’Riordan

The rare 1991 four song release that captured an Irish band on the brink of global impact is reissued on cranberry coloured vinyl, preserving a crucial moment before The Cranberries transformed alternative music worldwide.

For the first time ever, The Cranberries' legendary 1995 MTV Unplugged performance will see release as a standalone album. The set arrives November 7, 2025, on vinyl, CD and digital via Island Records/UMe.

September 6 has marked several pivotal moments in music history, from landmark chart successes to the birthdays of future icons. On this day, The Beatles dominated the UK charts, Jimi Hendrix performed a career-shaping set in London, and Elton John scored hits that would cement his place as one of the world’s greatest songwriters. Roger Waters, David Allan Coe and Dolores O’Riordan were all born on September 6, each leaving a lasting imprint on rock, country and alternative music. With legendary performances, celebrated births and classic album releases, September 6 is a day that continues to resonate across decades of music history.

The Cranberries paid tribute to Dolores O'Riordan on what would have been her 49th birthday.

In the end its all over now and that is exactly how The Cranberries have decided to wrap up their career.

Dolores O’Riordan of The Cranberries died from drowning in a bath due to alcohol intoxication, the coroner has revealed.

The surviving members of the Cranberries, Mike and Noel Hogan and Fergal Lawler, have announced that they are once again moving forward with two projects.
