“The lead singer…was in London for a short recording session,” she added.

The Cranberry climbed up the international ladder in 1993 with their first album “Everybody Else is Doing it, So Why Can’t We?” after first making their debut as a band in 1989.

Niall Quinn was the lead singer of the group before Dolore O’Riordan replaced him.

The band was famous for other albums such as: “No Need to Argue” released in 1994, “To The Faithful Departed” released in 1996, “Bury The Hatchet” released in 1999, “Wake Up and Smell the Coffee” released in 2001, “Roses” 2012, “Something Else” released in 2017.
