In an announcement bound to excite fans worldwide, The Cranberries are releasing a special tribute album to honor their late lead singer, Dolores O’Riordan. Set to drop in the coming months, this album will include never-before-heard tracks recorded with O’Riordan before her tragic passing in 2018. The band promises a heartfelt tribute to the vocalist whose voice helped define the ’90s alternative rock scene, capturing the angst, beauty, and resilience of a generation.
The Cranberries, known for hits like *Linger*, *Zombie*, and *Dreams*, have been working closely with producers to carefully restore and remaster these unreleased songs. The upcoming album aims to offer fans a new experience of O’Riordan’s voice, celebrating her legacy while marking a powerful chapter in the band’s history. Since O’Riordan’s passing, her absence has left an indelible void, both in the music industry and in the hearts of fans. The album will be a journey through some of her final creations and promises to resonate deeply with those who have cherished her unique vocal style and lyrical depth.
According to band members, the album draws from recording sessions that took place during the making of their 2017 album, *Something Else*, and includes tracks that O’Riordan was particularly passionate about. The band is also including reflective pieces inspired by O’Riordan, crafted over the last few years to commemorate her spirit and creative impact. Guitarist Noel Hogan shared that these songs felt like “messages waiting to be delivered,” and the band took great care to ensure each track preserves her raw, emotional presence.
To further honor O’Riordan, The Cranberries have organized a global tribute event where fans can gather to celebrate her life and music. Fans can expect a lineup of artists who will cover iconic Cranberries songs, with portions of the proceeds going toward a mental health charity O’Riordan supported.
The upcoming album will be more than just a collection of songs; it will be a testament to a voice that will forever echo in the music world. Stay tuned for more details on this moving tribute to a legend who inspired countless souls through her powerful music.
