Tour de Cranberries el año que viene!!!

The day that many of us thought we would never see is finally here and Cranberries.com couldn't be happier to announce the news. Dolores O'Riordan and the original members of The Cranberries have announced that they will reform for the first time in nearly seven years for a live tour. "I've decided to reunite with my former band members in The Cranberries and we will be writing new songs and performing tracks off my new album as well as our greatest hits during the shows. I'd love to see you out there." O'Riordan stated.

In January, O'Riordan played a set at Dublin's Trinity College with band members and brothers Noel and Mike Hogan to commemorate her being made an Honorary Patron of Trinity's Philosophical Society. The performance was the first time the band members had seen each other since 2003. Never officially broken up, the band instead has been on hiatus, and being in the same room and playing music together for the first time made them realize how much they had missed each other. Touring will begin at the end of the year in North America and make its way to Europe in early 2010 with dates announced shortly.

Today also marks the release of Dolores O'Riordan's solo album, No Baggage, via zoe/rounder records in the US and Canada and Cooking Vinyl in the rest of the world. With No Baggage, O'Riordan's unforgettable, distinguished voice is back and better than ever. She co-produced and wrote all of the tracks on the album with Ontario-based Dan Brodbeck, resulting in a bright, clean sound that finds the singer's astoundingly emotive voice front and center, be it on the gorgeous piano ballad "Lunatic," the forthright, rocking track "Be Careful," or the infectious, driving lead single, "The Journey."

"I probably haven't worn my heart on my sleeve like this since the second Cranberries album (1994's No Need To Argue)," she says. "It's at times very confessional and dealing with my true emotions. Everyone, through their experiences or their background, has had terrible moments where they think they can't handle it. With this record I'm trying to show that, no matter how bad things may seem, it's not really that bad in the big picture." says O'Riordan.

Cranberries.com will be undergoing a revitalization to commemorate this exciting news. Watch for more exciting updates soon

Good News Indeed......
Hey there,
     Yes....The Cranberries will be starting rehearsals in the middle of October. I can't wait to get back playing live again, it's always been the thing I enjoyed most about being in a band. We are planning to do some touring and write new songs along the way, maybe even test a few out on the road before we record them so it's going to be a very exciting time. I'll try to blog more when we start rehearsing, my apologies, I'm not really good at this and I lose track of time when I'm in the studio....the days zoom past.
    For the last week or so I've been doing final mixes on 'The Last Days of Death Country' Album.  The band came out for a listening back session on friday and after a few  tweaks we reached our goal!  So, hope to send it off to masterlabs in Dublin next week and I'll post some tracks up here or you can head over to  www.myspace.com/lastdaysofdeathcountry . They are such a great bunch of people and an incredibly melodic, powerful, dynamic band. They desrve to be hugely successful...so, my fingers are crossed for them.
    I've also been working on the 'Si' album and we will be getting stuck into those tracks next week. She has some fantastic songs and a huge collection of friends and family who play various instruments, so it's going to be another interesting and enjoyable experience.
    Well it's 2 am in rainy and stormy Ireland so I will bid you good night.
 Oiche mhait.
    Fergal.

When both these projects are finished I will start rehearsal with The Cranberries before we play our first gigs in almost seven years, the first run of gigs will be in North America before the Christmas holidays.

The Cranberries will begin rehearsals in a few weeks and I must admit, it still hasn't sunk in fully!   It's been a long time since we've played together but I'm sure after the first few days it will all click into place and we will be fine.  It's going to be great to play live again, it has always been one of my favourite parts of being in a band and we are mostly playing theatre's so the sound will be really clear.   I'm sure will will have time at soundcheck to play around with some new material too, so that should be exciting indeed.  You'd never know, we might even end up with a new song in the set....

"He creí­do que era el momento adecuado para reagrupar a la banda", ha declarado Dolores O'Riordan, anunciando además "material nuevo" para sus actuaciones. Volverán a reunirse. Dolores O?Riordan, Fergal Lawler y los hermanos Mike y Noel Hogan vuelven a la carga.

Siete años de silencio y ocho sin pisar suelo español. Confirmadas ya dos citas en nuestro paí­s para el próximo año, los creadores de Zombie, Animal instinct, Just my imagination o Dreams, sorprenden gratamente a sus fans. Será a mediados de noviembre de este año cuando comiencen su gira en EE.UU, donde podremos escuchar nuevos temas. En el mes de marzo chuzarán el charco para recalar en nuestro paí­s con dos fechas.

El palacio de los Deportes de Vistalegre (Madrid) acogerá a los de Limerick el 12 de marzo. Un dí­a despuíés la banda llegará al Pabellón Olí­mpico de Barcelona. Aún tienes tiempo para ahorrar los 40 o 45 euros (dependiendo si son entradas de pista o de asiento) que costarán las entradas para poder disfrutar de las mejores canciones de la peculiar banda. Estas entradas se ponen a la venta el próximo siete de octubre.

"Durante estos últimos años hemos estado inmersos en diferentes proyectos que nos han aportado muchas experiencias. Ahora ha llegado el momento de compartir todas estas experiencias y plasmarlas en nuestra música, seguir evolucionando", ha dicho Noel Hogan

La banda avalada por siete Discos de Platino en EE. UU., cinco Discos de Platino en Europa y unas ventas que superan los más de 40 millones de discos en todo el mundo, ternina su "descanso" de siete años en menos de un mes

Good evening,
    Myself, Noel and Mike began rehearsing yesterday and much to my surprise, it didn't sound too bad at all.  It was funny, as if it has just been a few months, rather than years since we had played together.  It's a nice relaxed atmosphere and we are getting through lots of songs.  Dolores and Denny are due to arrive in the next week or so and we will sit down and 'brainstorm' some set-list ideas.
   We'll put some photo's up soon.
   
Take care,
   Fergal.

Reseña!!

Citar
been almost seven years since the Cranberries last hit the road.

Last night, the Irish rockers officially ended their hiatus with a 90-minute sold-out show at Rams Head Live. The concert kicked off an international tour which stretches through late March. What have they been up to in the meantime?

"I can't believe it's been six and a half years," said singer Dolores O'Riordan. "Babies were born. We had fun in the bedroom."

Aha ...


That's not all, though. O'Riordan recorded two solo albums, the most recent being "No Baggage," which came out in August. Last night's show was heavy on classic Cranberries material, but also included some of O'Riordan's solo work. 

The band emerged at 9 p.m. sharp, and started with "How" a mellow track from their debut album, "Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?" Early on, it was clear the concert would succeed or fail on the strength of the songs and O'Riordan's voice.

The four other musicians in the band (guitar, bass, keyboard and drums) had a few miscues, and several songs ended up sounding flat. I'm sure the band will find their footing in the coming weeks.

On the whole, the show was a fairly strong showing, especially considering how long it's been since the last time they toured.


O'Riordan has lost none of her spunk. Dressed in a tight, sparkly black dress and black leggings, her dark hair cut short, O'Riordan cut a fierce and captivating figure. Her impressive range and vocal acrobatics were on full display, too. O'Riordan's singing can switch from gentle to savage in a heartbeat, and her warbling and cracking can be polarizing.


The pace picked up with "Wanted," and shifted gears with "When You're Gone," an ambling, '50s inspired ballad. O'Riordan had the crowd in her corner all night. Fans sang and clapped along with her, and one audience member gave her a bouquet of flowers.


The first encore, "No Baggage" featured just O'Riordan and the keyboardist, which showcased the softer side of O'Riordan's singing. The inevitable closer, "Dreams," suffered from some disappointing guitar work, but O'Riordan carried the song -- as she did most of the night.


Welcome back, Cranberries. Don't make it so long next time around.

Here is the setlist:

1) How
2) Animal Instinct
3) Linger
4) Ordinary Day
5) Wanted
6) Just My Imagination
7) Dreaming My Dreams
8) When You're Gone
9) Daffodil Lament
10) new song?
11) I Can't Be With You
12) Ode to My Family
13) Free to Decide
14) Waltzing Back
15) Insomnia
16) Salvation
17) Ridiculous Thoughts
18) Zombie

Buenas criticas!

Citar
couple of months ago, when news broke that The Cranberries were getting back together for a tour, I did wonder if the band would be able to meet fans' expectations. Judging by Friday night's show at Toronto's Queen Elizabeth Theatre—the first in a two-night run—the reunion tour is undeniably a success.

There are a few reasons why the show was so fantastic. Two of the reasons are the band and the fans.

The place was packed—sidenote: the sound is so good at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre that I think it's tied Massey Hall for my favourite venue with chairs—and everyone seemed genuinely excited (there was no evidence of people attending for novelty's sake). Once the lights had gone down and the intro music was playing, cheers arose every time a tech walked onstage. The band then entered and started into "How" from their 1993 debut album, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?.

Before singing a note, Dolores O'Riordan began her ongoing engagement with the crowd by saying "Stand up" and claiming, "Toronto is my home away from home." The crowd remained on their feet for the duration of the show.

It's clear that Dolores is as excited to be playing with the guys again and that she was as excited to be at this show as the crowd was excited to see the band. She did that dance she does—all over the stage, she whooped when songs finished, she explained some songs' origins, and she occasionally traded off lines with the audience. She seemed like a thrilled little kid.

Dolores sounds a bit older than she did the last time The Cranberries played, which makes sense since she is a bit older. It's possible that her voice can't quite level cities the way it used to, but it can still bring down a house. She hit every note and the audience was happy to sing along when she specifically asked them to and when she didn't.

Back to the set...after the opening number, Dolores introduced "Animal Instinct" from 1999's Bury the Hatchet by making reference to the birth of her soon-to-be twelve-year-old son, who was in attendance—she mentioned her daughters a couple of songs later before "Ordinary Day." She brought one enthusiastic fan onstage as the band started up "Linger," also from the debut. The fan sang the opening vocal part before falling to one knee.

Probably all the Cranberries songs that fans hoped the most to hear were played—there was nothing from their final (so far?) album, Wake Up and Smell the Coffee.

The set reached its peak several times (the first being the band's entrance and the first trio of songs). "Daffodil Lament" reached a feverish level and it was followed by "I Can't Be With You," "Ode to My Family," and "Free to Decide." Three songs later came "Salvation" followed by "Ridiculous Thoughts,"—with Dolores singing the intro lying on her back and apparently getting a headrush from sitting up too quickly—and "Zombie." During the instrumental portion near the end of the latter, she said "This is our song," and I think she was claiming ownership for many more than just those onstage.

The first encore was "Lunatic" from Dolores's recently released second solo album, No Baggage. She sang it very dramatically, accompanied only by touring musician Denny DeMarchi on keyboards, and it was honestly a little weird, though by no means terrible. "Switch Off the Moment" from the same album and "Ordinary Day" from her solo debut, 2007's Are You Listening?, had fit better into the set of otherwise Cranberries material. Next came "Empty" from 1994's No Need to Argue and Dolores's current single, "The Journey," No Baggage producer Dan Brodbeck joining the group on guitar for the latter.

The Cranberries ended the show the way they started it, with a song from their debut album. This one was "Dreams," and it was perfect.

In conclusion, the songs by one of the biggest bands from the 90s hold up today and there is room in the band's set for some of their frontwoman's solo material. Also, Dolores O'Riordan seems rejuvenated and very happy to be playing the old songs with the band again. Her performance at the November 20th show in Toronto ranks her in my mind as one of the best, most genuine frontpeople around. We'll just have to wait and see whether or not this reunion tour turns into a full on Cranberries reunion...

And We're off....
Hey there,
Well I've been meaning to write a blog for the past few days but I just wanted to get settled first. We did a few days rehearsal in Boston and then headed down to Baltimore for the first show. It was great, really exciting. The strange thing was it was as if we had never stopped playing!! We just clicked back into it and the songs are flowing nicely. My cousin came to the show last night and he thought we played better than ever, so that was very encouraging to hear.
We're off to Hampton Beach now but it's raining and I was hoping to have a nice stroll on the beach, maybe I'll try to locate an umbrella and go for it.
Having an absolute blast out here.
See ya'll soon.
Fergal.

Estaba encantado de volver a tocar!

Entrevista a Noel!!

Citar
I tried contacting Noel Hogan for an interview while we were both in Chicago but since he had a very busy schedule during the tour, he answered back once I was already back in Mexico City. Fortunately Noel accepted to answer a couple of questions via internet, the following interview was sent and answered back directly through MySpace.


Sigma: How do you feel about technology on these days? Specially with the internet and all those networks like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.

Noel: Use the internet makes the whole relationship with fans a much more one on one thing. This is great to keep people up to date with that is happening.


Sigma: If the Cranberries hadn't gotten back together, what would you be doing now?

Noel: I would be in the studio producing/writing.


Sigma: Since The Cranberries are back, what will happen to Arkitekt and the bands you've been working with as a producer lately?

Noel: I am still working on all the projects I began, I will be working on these during any down time with the Cranberries.


Sigma: Are you planing to include more songs or do any changes to the setlist in the following shows? (Latin America - Europe)

Noel: The set-list will always change, it all depends on how we feel on the day of the show.


Sigma: You showed us a picture with the message "working on tracks", was that new stuff, old songs for the tour or any of the never-released tracks?

Noel: We are working on new tracks for the next album, we hope to have this ready next year.


Sigma: If it's something new, can you reveal any title yet?

Noel: No titles right now, I just number the tracks.


Sigma: What are the plans for The Cranberries during/after the Tour?

Noel: We are home for Christmas and then back on tour for almost a year.


Sigma: First time playing at most countries in Latin America, how does it feel?

Noel: We are all looking forward to getting down to Latin America, it's the first time we have all gone as the Cranberries and from the messages we have been receiving so far it's going to be very exciting.


Sigma: How do you feel with the guys after almost 7 years of no-Cranberries? How are things different on the road now that everyone has kids and different projects to work with?

Noel: It's been great for every one to go and work on different things, you need to see what else is out there. We have all been learning so much for the past 7 years. We are all enjoying doing this again now that we have had different things to do for the past few years.


Sigma: Gohan Records has released indie stuff including Tone List, any plans of releasing anything from The Cranberries?

Noel: No, Gohan is a separate thing for me and the projects I work on. It's quiet small scale.

Hey there,
Just finished dinner and now sitting in the dressing room counting down the minutes until our first concert of the South American tour. Santiago is beautiful, it reminds me of Spain but it is a much bigger city than Madrid or Barcalona. Everyone we've met here has been really friendly and welcoming. I have always wanted to backpack around here so when my children are older I will definitely come back to visit. We were working on some new songs at soundcheck and discussing the possibility of fitting some recording time into our busy touring schedule.
Well, I'd better start warming up for the gig.
Take care,
Fergal.

Intacto. Como si veinte años no fueran nada. El show que brindó The Cranberries anoche en el Luna Park fue sencillamente un lujo para los fanáticos de la banda irlandesa, que despuíés de siete años fuera de los escenarios, volvió a tocar para celebrar las dos díécadas que pasaron desde su formación.

La voz privilegiada de la vocalista y lí­der de la banda, Dolores O´Riordan, volvió a lucirse como en la díécada del 90, junto a un pop de guitarras melódico, accesible y sensual, mezclando baladas y ritmos de rock puro, que llevó al cuarteto irlandíés a ser una de las revelaciones a nivel mundial primero, para luego consolidarse en el mercado musical con más de 40 millones de discos vendidos

El amplio y potente registro vocal de Dolores, que transita tonos bajos y profundos, mezclados con gemidos agudos y sostenidos en casi todas sus canciones contó con el complemento indispensable de la guitarra de Noel Hogan, que acompañó con una impresionante base rí­tmica todos los acordes desplegados en el show.

Gitazos como Linger, Ode to my family y When you´re gone, fueron de las primeras baladas hits del show que introdujo al público al espectáculo desplegado por los europeos que por primera vez se presentaban en la Argentina. Pero no tardó mucho la banda en hacer mover a la gente con sus explosivos Salvation y Zombie para que el Luna vibrara a puro rock irlandíés.

Una desprejuiciada Dolores, que lucí­a un vestido multicolor y zapatillas plateadas, se movió de un lado a otro del escenario con movimientos contundentes y ritmos cortados. Varias veces se acercó a sus fans extendiendo su mano para lograr un efí­mero contacto y logró con ellos el siempre permanente ida y vuelta vocal en los coros de sus temas más pegadizos.

Además de admitir a sus fans que sabí­a pocas palabras en español, como "hola amigos" y "muchas gracias", Dolores mencionó varias veces en inglíés el calor que hací­a dentro del Luna (sin aire acondicionado y con una humedad tremenda), al decir "It´s very hot" (hace mucho calor) o "We´re cooking up here" (nos estamos cocinando aquí­ arriba).

Sonaron pocas canciones propias de la cantante, que incursionó como solista con sus discos Are You Listening? (2007) y el reciente No Baggage (2009), a la vez que se escucharon muchos de los hits de los primeros tres discos de la banda - Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can´t We? (1993), No Need to Argue (1994) y To The Faithfully Departed (1996)-.

The Cranberries contagió al público con sus canciones compuestas con letras sencillas pero que tocan temas complejos como en Linger, que describe a una chica que sufre por un amor que la engaña; Zombie, que se mete de lleno en la polí­tica internacional respecto a Bosnia en los 90; y Salvation, donde profundiza la problemática de la drogadicción.

El show presentado en el Luna Park fue con entradas agotadas. Pero esta noche será la última oportunidad de verlos, para quienes quieran deleitarse con la voz de Dolores y los temas profundos y pegadizos de la banda irlandesa, que anoche cerró su presentación con el tema Dreams, dejando al público "soñando" con su paso por Buenos Aires.

Es cierto que la caracterí­stica más distintiva de The Cranberries es la famosa voz de su cantante, Dolores O’Riordan. Pero uno de los miembros claves del grupo es el guitarrista Noel Hogan, co-compositor de la mayorí­a de sus temas y fundador de la banda junto a su hermano Mike, con quien armó el conjunto Cranberry Saw Us y puso un aviso para buscar cantante en 1990. O’Riordan acudió a la prueba y aceptó el desafí­o de aportar letras a las primeras composiciones, entre ellas el futuro hit “Linger”, razón por la cual no dudaron en tomarla.

Rebautizados The Cranberries, se convirtieron en uno de los grupos de pop-rock más exitosos de los años noventa, con más de 15 millones de discos vendidos sólo en Estados Unidos.

El año pasado volvieron, tras más de un lustro separados, o más precisamente en una “pausa” donde anunciaron que se iban “a tomar un tiempo” para emprender proyectos solistas. Y el regreso, quizás debido a la tibia repercusión de los discos solistas de O’Riordan y el tiempo necesario para criar a sus hijos, fue espectacular, tal como confirma Noel Hogan a Crí­tica de la Argentina.

–¿Se imaginaban semejante repercusión incluso en esta primera visita a la Argentina?

–Nos avisaron que habí­a necesidad de agregar una fecha en Buenos Aires, pero no sabí­amos si era posible debido a la logí­stica de la gira, que deja poco margen para cambiar el recorrido, pero finalmente fue posible y nos parece genial ir por primera vez. En muchas ciudades tambiíén se agotaron las entradas, pero en prácticamente ninguna pudimos agregar otra función porque el cronograma era extremadamente ajustado

–¿Pero estaban confiados en su popularidad o se preguntaban si la gente se habí­a olvidado ya?

–El año pasado, cuando arrancamos la gira de reunión en Estados Unidos, sabí­amos que habí­a pasado mucho tiempo desde la última vez que tocamos, y sí­, realmente nos preguntábamos si nos recordaban. Pero todo anduvo bien, ese tramo de la gira fue genial y tuvimos muchos pedidos de shows, así­ que ya nos sentimos más seguros de nosotros mismos.

–¿Se vieron durante los últimos seis años?

–Estuvimos siempre en contacto, especialmente por telíéfono, y yo sabí­a que todo andarí­a bien cuando nos volviíéramos a juntar. Sólo era cuestión de esperar el momento en que todos estuviíéramos libres.

–¿Es sólo una gira de reunión, como The Police, o The Cranberries ha vuelto con todo?

–¡Cranberries ha vuelto! De hecho, estamos componiendo nuevos temas y con suerte en abril estaremos en un estudio de grabación. Lo que queremos es hacer cosas diferentes, porque todos hemos crecido y no queremos volver a hacer las mismas cosas.

–¿Y se animan a hacer giras largas, como antes?

–Solí­amos tocar sin parar durante años, pero ahora tocamos un par de semanas, volvemos a casa y nos tomamos unos dí­as. Es algo que no hubiíéramos podido hacer antes, pero ahora todos tenemos hijos.

–¿Tus chicos te vieron en vivo antes?

–No. Tengo tres hijos y van a verme el mes que viene al Royal Albert Hall. Como eran muy pequeños, hace muy poco que habí­an comprendido a lo que me dedico. ¡Ahora me creen cuando digo que fui una estrella de rock!

Un recital de la nueva etapa

Según el guitarrista, la lista de temas de un show actual de The Cranberries incluye “una columna vertebral con los temas de los hit singles que todo el mundo conoce”, pero lo complementan con canciones más raras o inesperadas que “los fans van a apreciar especialmente y que cambiamos cada noche de acuerdo con las ganas del momento”.

Además, el grupo toca en vivo un par de temas de los discos solistas de Dolores O’Riordan, por ejemplo “Lunatic” de su reciente CD No Baggage, de fines del año pasado.

Tonight in Porto Alegre was the hottest gig we have played in a long, long time. It was 45 degrees centigrade today and the humidity was stifling, but it was an amazing show. The audiences here in South America have been incredible for every gig. Singing, chanting, dancing, it's just fantastic. It's an honour to play to a crowd like that. It has been tough going so far, lots of traveling on planes and in vans so unfortunately we haven't had enough time to enjoy Brasil but from what we've seen and the people we have met it is a beautiful place full of friendly faces.
We are off to Argentina tomorrow so I will be eating some of that famously delicious beef tomorrow night for sure!

Comentario del show de Guadalajara!!

Citar
Los integrantes del conjunto irlandíés cumplieron su cita con los tapatí­os, en una noche marcada por los recuerdos

GUADALAJARA, JALISCO.- Los recuerdos son una potente arma para muchas bandas, en especial aquellas que apelan a sus grandes íéxitos del pasado para conquistar a su público. The Cranberries son uno de los mejores ejemplos, pues aunque su producción en los últimos tiempos se reduce a discos de íéxitos e incluso una prolongada separación, eso no impidió a sus integrantes abarrotar el Auditorio Telmex con añejos fanáticos, que durante años no perdieron la esperanza de ver a la banda irlandesa y soñar con que algún dí­a se presentarí­a sobre un escenario tapatí­o. Y ese dí­a finalmente llegó.

Aunque la íépoca reciente ha sido poco productiva a nivel lí­rico para la agrupación europea, eso no les ha restado ninguna cualidad escíénica. En especial a Dolores O’Riordan, la vocalista y principal fuente de energí­a del conjunto, que ayer por la noche demostró que siguen tocando como en sus mejores tiempos. í‰se es el poder de la nostalgia.

íngel rebelde

La voz de O’Riordan transportó de inmediato a los fanáticos de la banda a la díécada de los años noventa, cuando The Cranberries dominaba el panorama del pop rock internacional. El violento guitarreo y furiosa baterí­a del grupo eran el acompañamiento perfecto para canciones como Animal, Linger y Ordinary Day, temas donde las dudas existenciales adolescentes, románticas y nostálgicas son el elemento constante.

El público fue heterogíéneo en su distribución entre hombres y mujeres, aunque dominó la presencia de veinteañeros, quienes miraron asombrados la forma en que Dolores O’Riordan se desenvolvió sobre el escenario. La vocalista bailó, brincó, aplaudió y con un español “champurrado” agradeció a los asistentes: “Hola Guadalajara, muchas gracias por estar aquí­. Ayer estábamos en Atlanta, Georgia (en Estados Unidos) y estaba nevando. Así­ que disfrutamos mucho venir a un lugar con un clima y gente tan hermosa”.

La cantante elaboró una pequeña introducción en forma de aníécdota para cada uno de los tema y en la mayorí­a de los casos utilizó breves experiencias cotidianas e incluso familiares, aunque no se le olvidó hacer referencia a l tiempo que ya tiene la banda sobre el escenario, pues se formó en 1989.

Entrega al máximo

Haciendo gala de una puntualidad extraordinaria, el concierto dio arranque exactamente a las 21:00 horas y a lo largo de una hora y 40 minutos, The Cranberries echaron mano de sus mayores íéxitos, para regodeo de sus fanáticos, que corearon cada uno de los temas y ocurrencias del grupo. Ode to my family, Zombie y finalmente Dreams, en el encore, serí­an los temas más celebrados de la noche, una donde el grupo irlandíés demostró a pulso que todaví­a son uno de los favoritos de los tapatí­os.

Desatan pasiones

Los artí­culos de la banda irlandesa se convirtieron en el objeto del deseo de sus fanáticos, especialmente las camisetas oficiales, aunque hubo opciones para todos, eso sí­, nada baratas. La bolsa conmemorativa por 230 pesos, tres botones por 40 pesos y una llave de metal por 70 pesos. Y es que ser fan siempre cuesta.


Los detalles

. El público, que se entregó de principio a fin y convirtió el recinto en un mar de celulares.

. La voz de Dolores O’Riordan, que alcanzó, como en sus mejores tiempos, todas las notas. Su buen desempeño se reflejó en su actuación sobre el escenario, incluso se dio el lujo de cantar un tema completamente acostada.

. El escenario pobre y poco adornado. Sin pantallas de leds ni un elemento destacado, la banda se conformó con un discreto juego de luces.

CARLES MULET. PALMA. La mí­tica banda que desde agosto vuelve a liderar Dolores O´Riordan protagonizará uno de los grandes conciertos del verano mallorquí­n, español por extensión. The Cranberries, en plena gira de reencuentro mundial, tienen cita con el Palma Arena el próximo 31 de julio, un sábado para el que no se podrán comprar las entradas hasta "mediados de marzo o principios de abril". Las más baratas, 40 euros, permitirán disfrutar de la velada de pie, y a pie de escenario. Pagar las más caras, de 45 a 55, se traducirá en una experiencia de asiento reservado.

"El contrato ya está firmado". Desde Rubio Producciones confirmaban ayer a DIARIO de MALLORCA que los contactos con la reunificada banda irlandesa han llegado a buen puerto y ya están rubricados. La veterana y contrastada promotora local, que ya llenó el Audití²rium de Palma con el solitario de O´Riordan en noviembre de 2007, está sólo pendiente de poder cerrar el recinto, de momento ya "apalabrado". "Sonará muy bien", prometen curtidos, al mismo nivel que ya consiguieron con la poesí­a que Leonard Cohen musicó en el mismo escenario un último e inolvidable 11 de agosto.

Tras seis años de silencio, The Cranberries anunciaron su reencuentro y su regreso a escena en verano, en una sorprendente sesión de radio acontecida en la ciudad de Nueva York. El 12 de noviembre, los mismos cuatro componentes que fundaron la banda hace ahora 21 años –O´Riordan, Noel y Mike Hogan, Fergal Lawler– iniciaron un gigantesco tour mundial que no ha cesado de llenar estadios, ahora en Latinoamíérica; aunque reciíén suspendido Míéxico por problemas, puntuales, de salud de la cantante. Europa, con Madrid y Barcelona como primeras paradas españolas, comenzará a recibirlos el cercano marzo, dos citas las nuestras (dí­as 12 y 13) para las que quedan muy pocas entradas de las miles que salieron a la venta.

Tambiíén en marzo, la banda capaz de discos casi perfectos como No need to argue, editará el primer directo de su sincopada trayectoria, un esperado y comercial aperitivo del revival que ahora vienen paseando por el escenario, en funciones de dos largas e intensas horas. Bualadh Bos (Aplaude), previsto que llegue a las tiendas españolas el dí­a 2, incluirá por supuesto obligatorias como Zombie, Dreams, Ridiculous thoughts, Salvation, Free to decide o Linger.

El que para muchos fue uno de los mejores grupos de los noventa, The Cranberries, ha vuelto a la carga tras casi siete años de silencio. Ya hay programados en nuestro paí­s dos fechas para disfrutar del directo de la banda irlandesa, 12 de marzo en Madrid y un dí­a más tarde en Barcelona.

Pero para ir abriendo boca, el próximo 2 de marzo sale a la venta un disco con los mejores directos del alabado grupo. El tí­tulo del álbum será Bualadh Bos y en íél se recogen canciones de conciertos ofrecidos por los cinco continentes entre 1994 y 1998, su "íépoca dorada". Y cómo no, en el nuevo CD encontraremos sus mejores y más conocidos temas, como fueron "Zombie", "Dreams", "Ridiculous Thoughts", "Free To Decide" o "Linger".

La banda se formó en 1989 en Limerick (Irlanda) y lanzaba su primer disco un año despuíés. Desde entonces no pararon de cosechar íéxitos por todo el mundo. Esa exitosa carrera musical les llevó a vender más de 14,5 millones de discos sólo en Estados Unidos. En 2003 entristecí­an a sus numerosos fans con la decisión de separarse, pero el grupo volvió a reunirse en 2009. En ese descanso, la vocalista de la banda Dolores O' Riordan inició una carrera en solitario, y tan sólo un dí­a despuíés de presentar su segundo trabajo anunciaba el regreso de The Cranberries.

Lunes 15 de Febrero Fergal & Noel dieron una entrevista para Cranberries MEXICO dentro del Auditorio Telmex. Gracias a las personas que colaboraron enviando sus preguntas!

Sigma: Esta es la primera de 4 presentaciones que estarán dando en Míéxico y de hecho, 3 de ellas están completamente agotadas, ¿Cuáles son sus expectativas aquí­ que es la última parada del tour latinoamericano?

Fergal: Hemos estado aquí­ antes así­ que sabemos que los fans gritan y están llenos de energí­a y cantan las canciones. Eso hace todo más fácil, como que nos levanta, así­ que es muy divertido.

Sigma: ¿Podemos esperar sospresas para este concierto?

Noel: Por el momento lo que hemos estado haciendo creo que es casi algo de grandes íéxitos, tocamos todos los sencillos que caben en la lista de canciones e incluimos algunas canciones que los fans de verdad se sabrán, así­ que es una mezcla de casi todos los álbumes. Es muy dificil elegir las canciones, agregamos 1 ó 2, cambiamos unas cuantas. Es bastante tiempo el que no hemos tocado, obviamente durante la separación así­ que ensayaremos algunas nuevas en la prueba de sonido y empezaremos a cambiarlas más mientras la gira sigue y tambiíén hay un par de los discos de Dolores.

Sigma: ¿Cómo ha sido Latinoamíérica? Por lo que he visto ha sido genial, conciertos agotados, nuevas fechas, conciertos calurosos como el de Brasil.

Noel: Si, ha sido increible sabes, creo que sentí­amos que venir aquí­ iba a ser genial, porque nunca habiamos estado aquí­ antes, es más loco de lo que creí­amos, la público ha sido fantástico. No ha habido un solo concierto en el que la gente estíé sentada.

Sigma: Fuí­ a los Estados Unidos y es diferente, no hay fans en el aeropuerto, algunos conciertos eran con mesas y la gente bebí­a.

Noel: Si, eso pasa de paí­s a paí­s, de ciudad a ciudad pero ha sido muy constante aquí­.

Sigma: ¿Pueden contarme un poco más de lo que sucedió en Caracas, Venezuela? Que fuíé el concierto antes de este y tuvieron que cancelar.

Noel: Bueno, el itinerario ha sido muy dificil y sin dias de descanso, viajamos y al dí­a siguiente hay concierto. Esto afectó particularmente la voz de Dolores porque volar no es bueno para las cuerdas vocales y en el concierto de Ecuador...

Fergal: Si, habí­a como 6 doctores alrededor de ella y la inyectaron para la garganta.

Sigma: Estaba viendo la lista de canciones y fuíé realmente corta.

Noel: Ese dí­a entero fuíé una gran interrogante de si í­bamos a dar el concierto ó no asi que decidimos hacerlo pero dar otro al dí­a siguiente, nos procupó que despuíés tuviíéramos que cancelar todo lo que restaba. Ella vió al doctor y le dijo "Si puedes tomarte un descanso, hazlo" y eso fuíé lo que hicimos. Pero vamos a reprogramarlo tal vez para Septiembre.

Sigma: Ohh, ¿Quíé pasó con el fondo que va en el escenario?

Fergal: Ya está ahí­ puesto.

Noel: Hay unos recintos donde simplemente no... queda.

Sigma: Bueno, despuíés de todo este tiempo que han sido casi 7 años ¿Quíé se siente regresar juntos? Los miembros originales y luego tocar en vivo y todo eso.

Fergal: Es genial, es muy emocionante, nos hace querer más, estamos llenos de energí­a y felices.

Sigma: Es realmente bueno tenerlos de vuelta y con los mismos integrantes porque normalmente despuíés de todos estos años la gente empieza a reemplazarse pero es genial tenerlos a ustedes reunidos.

Noel: Creo que todos acordamos que siempre serí­amos nosotros 4.

Sigma: Cuando lanzaron Stars - The Best Of... fuíé como una celebración por los 10 años de The Cranberries, ahora que se acercan los 20 ¿Hay algún plan para este 20º Aniversario?

Fergal: Estar de gira.

Noel: Hemos estado grabando partes de los conciertos en varios lados asi que probablemente cuando se acerque el fin de esta gira despuíés del verano grabemos un álbum en vivo como debe ser.

Fergal: Con video.

Noel: Si, probablemente un DVD. Y claro, estamos a la mitad de escribir un nuevo álbum. Nuevas canciones, todos las están esperando.

Sigma: ¿Algún plan especí­fico para despuíés de los conciertos en Europa, como grabar ó seguir de gira?

Noel: En Mayo esperamos meternos al estudio por primera vez, creo que el 14 de Abril es nuestro último concierto y probablemente vayamos a casa a pasar un tiempo con nuestras familias, así­ que despuíés de algunas semanas esperamos empezar a grabar en Mayo. Aunque no estemos de gira seguiremos trabajando, hay muchas ideas que queremos realizar, así­ que ese es el plan, no sabemos cuando terminaremos el álbum pero tomará tiempo.

Sigma: ¿Hay alguna razón por la cual no hay canciones del álbum Wake Up And Smell The Coffee en la lista de canciones?

Noel: Creo que ha sido un accidente.

Fergal: Si, aun ensayamos esas canciones durante la prueba de sonido.

Sigma: No se si aun recuerden esto, en el 2004 esmpezaron a tocar 2 nuevas canciones: Astral Projection & In It Together ¿Tienen planes de rescatarlas?

Noel: Están grabadas, ambas canciones las hicimos en el 2003, empezamos lo que serí­a el siguiente álbum, hicimos bastantes canciones que siguen ahí­ así­ que si las usamos o no, a veces uno avanza y ya no quedan, uno ya no las usa, es una de esas cosas que veremos como van saliendo. No las hemos olvidado pero, veremos, las nuevas canciones que hemos empezado a hacer son diferentes y esas canciones son como que lo mismo, parecen un poco viejas, las nuevas son un camino diferente, despuíés de todo este tiempo todos tenemos influencias diferentes y creo que es mejor para nosotros, 13 años fueron solo de tocar, tienes que salirte de eso y ver nuevas cosas.

Sigma: ¿Han visitado otras ciudades aquí­ en Míéxico? Como Cancún.

Noel: Si, en Navidad mientras descansábamos sabes.

Sigma: Trabajaron con Mono Band, Arkitekt, The Low Network y un poco en Velvetbox ¿Tienen planes de continuar con esos proyectos o The Cranberries es su prioridad ahora? ¿Quíé harán con estos proyectos que empezaron?

Noel: Creo que para mi este es le momento de hacer un nuevo álbum con The Cranberries antes que nada, todos hicimos otras cosas pero el problema es encontrar el tiempo suficiente entre cada dí­a de la gira, pero es sano salir de la banda aunque ahora, para el futuro, la banda es el número uno y de ahí­ todo lo demás.

Sigma: Gracias y que tengan un escelente concierto esta noche.

The Cranberries bring it all back home – well, almost home! – on June 29 when they play Cork Live At The Marquee. Tickets go on sale on Friday March 5 priced €54.80.

Having taken a six-year ‘time out’, the band reconvened last year for a world tour that has been doing brisk business in the States and Canada.

This has encouraged their former record label, Island, to release Bualadh Bos: The Cranberries Live (the first bit means “clap your hands” in Irish), a 15-tracker culled from concert performances between 1994 and 1998. These include a Trip To Tipp rendition of ‘Dreams’, which had Semple Stadium well and truly rocking.

Hey there,
  I'm in Strasbourg on a six week tour of Europe with the cranberries.  I just noticed that I haven't written anything since November 2009.  My apologies, I've been sleeping a lot! Ha.
The tour in South America was great but there was huge amounts of travelling in between which made the whole thing a lot more strenuous, but we're back in Europe and have our own buses so life is more relaxed.
I was shocked to see the damage the Earthquake did in Chile.  I spoke to some of the people I met there and thankfully they are all safe and well.
  When this leg of the tour finishes I will be back in the studio for a few weeks to finish off mixing the 'SI' album . It's sounding really nice and I'm excited about hearing the final result.
I've been eating books out her, I finished the Stieg Larrson 'Girl with the dragon Tattoo' trilogy, read two books from Raymond E Feist and am on the hunt for the third. Just finished A book by another Swedish writer named Henning Menkell, it's a murder mystery called 'Sidetracked'.  Also read The Lovers by John Connolly book which was terrifyingly amazing. I shall be checking out more of his books when I finish the one I'm reading now....Hmm, maybe I should just have a little book review page.
For anyone who plays drums I posted some pictures of my drumkit from the South American tour in the photo's section.
take care,
Fergal.

Dan Brodbeck's celebrated collaboration with Irish rock singer Dolores O'Riordan on her second solo album No Baggage has brought the London recording engineer his first Juno nomination.

Brodbeck, who recorded the album at the EMAC studios in London, was nominated as recording engineer of the year for his work with O'Riordan on No Baggage's Apple of My Eye and Be Careful, a song he co-wrote with her.

"I was elated . . . I've been doing this so long," Brodbeck said Wednesday. He discovered he had been nominated late Wednesday morning after logging on to the Juno website. "There's no feeling like it."

Brodbeck is on the faculty at OIART in London, where he was a student. Last year, he joined O'Riordan and her 1990s band, The Cranberries, at one of their reunion gigs in Canada.

"I joined them for the encore which was really fun to do," he said.

He is also working on demos with The Cranberries at O'Riordan's Peterborough-area cottage.

The Cranberries, who broke up in 2003, are back together and touring Europe.

Hey there,
We're in Bordeaux today and have decided to change up the setlist a bit. Analyse, Liar, Time is Ticking Out, Desperate Andy and Promises have all been introduced. They were sounding pretty good at soundcheck so they should be fine tonight.
There has been a great reaction from all the European fans so far and it's been a lot easier for us to tour here as we have our own busses. The South American tour was very tough because we were flying everywhere and even had a few flights on the same day as the show which was a bit bizarre. Unfortunately all that travelling took it's toll and Dolores got a throat infection but we will be going back in September so apologies to anyone who has to wait another few months.
Take care,
Fergal

Water Brother anuncia oficialmente la reprogramación  del concierto de The Cranberries suspendido en el  pasado mes de febrero en Caracas para la segunda semana de octubre del presente año, el management del artista ha ratificado su compromiso y deseo de cumplir con el público venezolano y a la brevedad posible se dará a conocer la fecha exacta del concierto.



Debido a la rapidez en que se agotaron las localidades del concierto de The Cranberries en su primera etapa de pre venta en Caracas y los miles de fans alrededor del paí­s que mostraron su asombro por no poder asistir al evento, la empresa productora luego de meses de negociaciones, confirma finalmente la apertura de dos nuevas fechas a la visita del cuarteto irlandíés a Venezuela. Una segunda fecha se abrirá en Caracas en el Anfiteatro del Sambil y una tercera fecha en el Forum de Valencia. Water Brother, siempre fiel al gran público venezolano logra de esta forma cumplir con la gran expectativa creada alrededor de la gira mundial de reunión de la banda liderada por la cantante Dolores O´Riordan.



 En pocos dí­as se hará de conocimiento público a travíés de un comunicado oficial la nueva fecha de reprogramación del Concierto en el Anfiteatro del  Sambil, más la nueva función en el mismo recinto y la fecha del concierto en el Forum de Valencia.

El 25 de agosto del año pasado Dolores O'Riordan, lí­der y vocalista de The Cranberries, confirmaba la reunificación. Hací­a siete años que los irlandeses no publicaban ningún material nuevo. Así­ que, en 2009, decidieron editar un recopilatorio llamado, Bualadh Bos (2009), recogiendo sus mejores actuaciones grabadas, coincidiendo con la mejor etapa de la formación, entre 1994 y 1998 en diferentes ciudades de todo el mundo, como Michigan, Los íngeles, Toronto u Oslo.

Y de paso, aprovechar para realizar una gira mundial. El tour comenzaba el 12 de noviembre en Estados Unidos, contemplaba dos parada en nuestro paí­s y concluirá en el mes de abril en Europa, aunque ya se han confirmado nuevas fechas para julio en Grecia, Italia y Rumaní­a.

Desde hací­a ocho años que los cuatro componentes de The Cranberries no pisaban suelo español. Así­ que este fin de semana sus seguidores tienen dos oportunidades únicas de volver a verlos en directo, en Madrid y Badalona. La banda irlandesa presentará algunos de los nuevos temas que están preparando para un nuevo disco, junto a sus clásicos como Zombie, No need to argue, Ode to my family, Animal instinct, Just my imagination, Dreams y Linger, entre otros.

Todo un lujo. Tras conseguir siete Discos de Platino en Estados Unidos y cinco Discos de Platino en Europa, estar cuatro veces en lo más alto de la lista Billboard, disfrutar de los dos álbumes en solitario de Dolores O'Riordan en este parón, ha llegado el final de esta espera. Hoy The Cranberries llenará con su música pop con tintes celtas y aire oní­rico el Palacio de Vistalegre de Madrid y mañana, será el turno de vivirlo en el Pabelló Olí­mpic de Badalona.

Como decí­an los rockeros Los Suaves antes de iniciar su canción Dolores se llamaba Lola, "Quíé viva Dolores y la madre que la parió". Y que viva por mucho tiempo. Dolores O'Riordan volvió a demostrar este fin de semana ante 22.000 adeptos que, tras siete años de descanso con The Cranberries, sigue poseyendo una voz única e incomparable.


La incógnita quedó despejada; siete años no son nada para The Cranberries. Liderado por la cantante Dolores O'Riordan, el cuarteto irlandíés deparó un estupendo ejercicio de pop ante las 22.000 almas que este fin de semana abarrotaron el madrileño Palacio de Vistalegre y el barceloníés Pavelló Olí­mpic de Badalona.

Habí­an transcurrido ocho años desde la última vez que actuaron en nuestro paí­s y siete desde que se formalizó su separación, así­ que la duda residí­a en saber si la destreza del grupo habí­a quedado maltrecha tras ese largo parón artí­stico. Nada más lejos de la realidad. La voz de O'Riordan sigue impecable (a pesar del estado griposo que arrastraba en Madrid), Noel Hogan rasga su guitarra con la acostumbrada agresividad, el bajo de Mike Hogan continúa punteando a la perfección y Fergal Fowler no ha dejado de poner los puntos sobre las í­es con cada golpe de baqueta.

La conclusión, por tanto, es que The Cranberries no han regresado para arrastrar su leyenda por los escenarios, sino para hacer más grande el legado de una banda sin la cual no se puede concebir la música de los 90. Como si tuviera prisa por demostrar que siguen en plena forma, The Cranberries comenzaron su actuación incluso antes de tiempo. Tres minutos antes del horario previsto, la enorme lona negra que escondí­a el escenario fue retirada, el griterí­o se hizo ensordecedor y Dolores empezó a corear Barsalona. Empezaron a sonar los primeros acordes de Analyse para que el respetable rompiese a entonar una melodí­a a la que se encargó de poner letra Dolores O'Riordan.

"Es genial estar de vuelta, y para celebrarlo vamos a dar una vuelta a la historia junto a vosotros", anunció la vocalista antes de estremecer a la audiencia congregada con su interpretación de Animal instinct. Hiperactiva durante la hora y media de concierto, recorriendo las tablas de un extremo a otro con su alegre y peculiar forma de caminar, O'Riordan no paró quieta ni cuando agarró la guitarra acústica en Ordinary day, a la que siguió la más pausada Dreaming my dreams. La menuda cantante descubrí­a un pelo corto y negro muy distinto de aquel rubio oxigenado que lucí­a hace tan sólo unos meses. Vivamente coreada por las gargantas que ocupaban pista y gradas, la balada Linger enlazó con la oscuridad de Wanted y la potente instrumentación de I can't be with you, seguidas de la reivindicativa Free to decide y la sincera emotividad de Ode to my family.

"¿Estáis listos para el rock?", inquirió la artista en los instantes que precedieron a Salvation, una catarata sonora en la que destacó sobremanera Noel Hogan, poseí­do como parecí­a por el espí­ritu de la composición más contundente de la noche. Tras los suaves y delicados toques de música tradicional irlandesa que caracterizaron el arranque de How, The Cranberries proclamaron una vez más su compromiso pacifista con el celebíérrimo himno Zombie, que puso al recinto del revíés.

Un par de minutos en el camerino y el grupo regresó a las tablas para encarar el final de su repertorio, que continuó al ritmo intimista de Shattered y The journey, composición esta última perteneciente al segundo disco en solitario de Dolores O'Riordan, No baggage. "Volveremos muy pronto", aseguró la intíérprete (en referencia a su participación en el Arenal Sound) antes de atacar Promises y Dreams al más puro estilo Woodstock'94, broches definitivos de una actuación en la que faltó uno de sus grandes himnos, Just my imagination, y que todo el mundo echó de menos entre los silbidos de su salida del escenario. Y es que no se le pueden pedir arándanos al olmo...

Crónica del Royal Albert Hall!!

Citar
Mid way through their worldwide tour and after a seven year hiatus The Cranberries grace UK soil, with a gig which sees the airing of the most loved tracks, from their greatest hits album aptly named Stars. The Cranberries deliver a plethora of classic tracks, firmly cementing them as the greatest Irish export after Guinness. Dolores bounces around the stage, with a peacock-like mating dance, ensuring the audience lust after her every move, whilst the guys hit epic riff after epic riff, filling the Albert Hall with their captivating refrains.

Though they jump straight into their much loved songs, by the end of Animal Instinct it becomes apparently that audience participation is not optional and Dolores spends the evening singing only three quarters of her lyrics, wafting her microphone in the crowds’ direction for the other quarter. Nevertheless, The Cranberries delight and this homecoming gig is given extra poignancy as Dolores dedicates the performance of her solo track Ordinary Day to her attending daughters. This is followed later, by a similar nod to her mother, before Ode To My Family and the command ‘sing’ projected to the audience, sees her kin saluted by over 3000 fans.

The band springboard from this point on, luring the audience into a frenzy as they slalom their way through Free To Decide, Salvation and Ridiculous Thoughts (which see’s Dolores shower security and stage with sparkles from an equally ludicrous glitter baton) before hitting the home run with Zombie. Oblivious to the feedback issues which prevent the front woman from using her guitar as little more than a glorified accessory at the start of the song, the entirety of the Albert Hall respond appropriately rising to their feet, transcending the venue into a haven of dancing and singing.

Song after song, Dolores hits the notes, pitch perfect vocals ringing through the venue, whilst her band mates ensure their success of the 90’s is justified. Whilst Time Is Ticking Out emphasises the fundamental role the band take in securing their acclaim, her vocal adeptness and overwhelming stage presence during the finale of Dreams is the icing on the cake, suggesting that no matter the years, Dolores is still queen and The Cranberries still reign supreme.

De las cinco citas que de The Cranberries, tras de casi ocho años de parón, tienen en España una de ellas será Motril donde actuarán el próximo 28 de julio en el coso taurino motrileño. De esta manera Motril trae por segunda vez un espectáculo de calado internacional, tras el íéxito que obtuvo el concierto de Bob Dylan en 2004, bajo grandes expectativas de promoción turí­stica y empresarial

Según ha apuntado en la presentación el concejal de Fiestas del Ayuntamiento de Motril, Nicolás Navarro, el proyecto ha sido posible gracias a la participación de productores musicales nacionales e internacionales, junto con un gran número de patrocinadores que han permitido que “el Ayuntamiento sólo haya tenido que asumir una pequeña parte correspondiente al montaje del espectáculo, carga y descarga o material promocional y cartelerí­a”.

“Este concierto es un homenaje a todos los empresarios motrileños, a los patrocinadores y a todos los jóvenes amantes de la música que reclamaban un espectáculo de primer nivel en la costa”, manifestó el concejal de Fiestas.

El teniente de alcalde de Economí­a, Josíé Garcí­a Fuentes, ha querido tambiíén sumarse al afectuoso agradecimiento que ha mostrado Navarro con lo patrocinadores al mismo tiempo que ha resaltado el papel del “Ayuntamiento como dinamizador de la economí­a de la Costa de Motril y sus intereses; la Administración Pública debe estar para eso. Este espectáculo puede compararse con el concierto de Bob Dylan que trajimos en 2004 y pone el listón muy alto en el futuro”, argumentó Garcí­a Fuentes.

Según explicó Gregorio Vergara, productor musical de la compañí­a que ha financiado el 90% del concierto, BR Music International, a menudo los grandes artistas suelen poner grandes objeciones cuando planean los enclaves en los que van a ofrecer la gira pero, “en cuanto les dijimos que iba a ser en Motril les encantó el sitio; no puede decirse que hayamos necesitado de duras negociaciones a ese respecto”.

Además, el írea de Fiestas no ha querido olvidar a sus artistas locales y ha enviado al grupo irlandíés una buena suma de maquetas y material promocional para que The Cranberries escoja a sus teloneros de entre los conjuntos musicales motrileños.

Esta gira de cinco conciertos que ya ha hecho sus paradas en Madrid y Barcelona, visitará Mallorca, la Comunidad Valenciana y Motril, donde se espera que la actuación redunde en beneficio del negocio de playas y hostelerí­a, como así­ lo expresó Francisco Trujillo de Haro, Presidente de la ‘Asociación Costa Tropical de Chiringuitos’ que quiso mostrar, “todo su apoyo y colaboración con el Ayuntamiento para que este tipo de iniciativas salgan adelante”.

Las entradas pueden comprarse desde hoy mismo a 36, 45 y 70 euros dependiendo de la ubicación en ruedo, grada o vip, respectivamente. Podrán adquirirse en el Teatro Calderón y el Centro Comercial Radiovisión dentro del horario comercial o en la red nacional de adquisición de entradas online Tick, tack, ticket.

Ayer se llevó a cabo la ceremonia de apertura de los Special Olympic Games en el Thomond Park de Limerick, Irlanda en donde se realizó un concierto encabezado por The Cranberries. Fue la primera presentación de la banda en Irlanda desde aquel concierto en Cork en Junio del 2003 (el último antes de la pausa que duró siete años).

More than 15,000 people gathered at the historic rugby venue for the opening ceremony of the Special Olympics National Games, which are taking place in Limerick over the next four days.

Last night’s opening ceremony saw the first performance by Limerick band The Cranberries in more than a decade. “Anything is possible if you have a dream,” lead singer Dolores O’Riordan told the athletes.

“Twenty years ago The Cranberries began in this town. We had a dream and we followed that dream,” she added, before performing Linger, the first song the band wrote together.

“This is beautiful. You guys are such an inspiration – you have so much strength, courage and hope,” she told the crowd.

It was a night of huge emotions for the 1,900 athletes, who will compete in 14 different sports in venues across Limerick and Clare over the coming days. There was a special moment for 14-year-old athlete Kim O’Kelly from Kildare when she was brought up on stage to sing when the band performed Ode to My Family.

In her address, Minister for Tourism and Sport Mary Hanafin thanked the athletes for putting a smile on people’s faces in “difficult times”. “You show us what it is to get up and achieve and keep going, and thank you for the spirit of the Special Olympics that you give to all of us.

“The whole of Ireland loves all of you special Olympians. Thank you for your hope, for your determination, for your commitment, for your spirit,” she continued.

The Special Olympic Games, worst an estimated €25 million to the Limerick economy, is one of the biggest sporting events in Ireland this summer.

More than 3,500 volunteers have signed up to support the games. Supporters include JP McManus, who donated €250,000 to the event.

Some 4,000 family members who are travelling on a fleet of 650 coaches have accompanied the athletes.

Among those who addressed last night’s opening ceremony was Denis O’Brien, chairman of the Special Olympics Ireland Council of Patrons, who paid tribute to all those who sponsored the event.

Also present at last night’s ceremony was Irish rugby star and former Lions captain Paul O’Connell, who headed the volunteer recruitment drive for the games. The Limerick-born rugby star has a long association with the games.

With almost 10,000 people expected to descend on Limerick this week, accommodation staff at the University of Limerick were yesterday busy getting ready for the athletes, who will stay at five student residences on the campus

Because of a malaise that has struck the singer Dolores O'Riordan , the Cranberries were forced to cancel the Italian branch of their summer tour : the Irish band , according to the scanty information emerged to date, would still be in Spello , in Umbria , where he was waiting on stage tonight at Villa Fidelia . Tickets will be refunded at the point of sale at which they were purchased by July 30th , or - if purchased online Ticketone - by consulting the website www.ticketone.it. The group was expected the day after tomorrow , July 8 , the Venaria Reale in Turin.

They were amazing, the theatre was packed and the setlist was good, they played several songs from the first 2 albums. They had a lot of energy and the crowd went wild when they played Promises which was not on the initial setlist. I think they were better than the last time they came to Athens which was over 10 years ago. The set list is below:

The Cranberries Sound Sweeter

Romanian Times

The Cranberries singer Dolores O'Riordan is hoping to be able to give fans a sweet sound at her upcoming concerts after organisers revealed she had asked for honey to be imported from New Zealand to help her with a sore throat.

The singer told concert organisers in Romania that she needed Manuka honey that comes from New Zealand for their first concert when it takes place in Bucharest on 20 July.

Local organisers said that she also wanted six types of organic fruit juices, English tea. And the green-conscious Irish singer said she also wanted fresh milk - but not in cartons.

In the last month, the band had to cancel concerts in France and Italy after it was confirmed that Dolores was suffering from a throat infection including laryngitis.

Entrevista

Citar
O último cd da banda foi laní§ado em 2001. Depois disso, eles ficaram separados por sete anos e, finalmente, no fim do ano passado voltaram a tocar juntos pelos palcos do mundo. Os irmí£os Noel e Mike Hogan contam que voltar ao Brasil íé fantástico.

E tem novidade por aí­: em janeiro eles entram no estúdio pra gravar um novo cd. Atíé lá, os fí£s aproveitam pra relembrar os grandes sucessos!

Noel reconhece que quando ele e o irmí£o montaram a banda em 1989 ní£o imaginavam que o sucesso seria tí£o grande, mas eles conquistaram uma legií£o de fí£s muito alíém da pequena cidade de Limrick, na Irlanda.

Quando fala dos fí£s brasileiros Mike diz que só aqui no Brasil o público íé tí£o apaixonado, tí£o emocionado. Noel completa e diz que a vibraí§í£o comeí§a no aeroporto, no hotel, durante e depois do show. “Quando a gente toca o primeiro acorde, todo mundo vai í  loucura e tocar assim íé um grande prazer”, afirma Mike.

London Feis has confirmed that it will be extending its festival to a second day, which is to be headlined by Van Morrison. Joining Saturday headliner Bob Dylan, the Northern Irish singer-songwriter will be headlining the festival on Sunday 19th June in London's Finsbury Park.
 
The Irish music festival, which celebrates 21 years of the best Irish and International music in Finsbury Park, will also host the newly reformed Irish rock band The Cranberries. The band, who have had worldwide sales of over 40 million records with hits such as 'Linger', 'Zombie' and 'Dreams' have announced that this, like Bob Dylan's appearance, will be their only UK festival performance this year.

From Stephen Street's official site:

"Heading over to Ireland later on this week to link up with Noel from the Cranberries and have a listen through to their rehearsal recordings and demos as I'm going to be helping them record their next LP. We are going to start it next month in Toronto Canada as Delores now lives there and I'm looking forward to hooking up with the guys again after a lengthy break."

Irish rock band The Cranberries, which reassembled themselves in 2009 after a five-year break, will be performing at the annual summer beer festival í•llesummer on July 8.

Brothers Noel and Mike Hogan started the band in 1989 and rose to international fame with their debut album "Everybody Else is Doing it, So Why Can’t We?", becoming the most successful rock act of the 90s. They have sold over 14.5 million albums in the United States alone, and have had four albums in the top 20 of the Billboard 200 chart.

The band consists of four members, lead by vocalist Dolores O'Riordan.

Other performers at this year's festival will be disclosed in the next couple of weeks, the organizers said.

í•llesummer will take place from July 6 to 9 on the historical Tallinn Song Festival Grounds, which each year brings together hundreds of local artists and performers from over the world.

From the í•llesummer 2011 festival site:

 

"The Cranberries, who recently returned to the studio, won over the hearts of many Estonian people with their hits Zombie, Linger, Dreams, Ode To My Family, When You’re Gone and many other top pop and rock songs from 1990s. The band's eagerly awaited new album will be released this year and the band says the first single from the new album should come out in summer.

“Getting the Cranberries to perform at í•llesummer is a real feat for us, because their comeback means they’re in high demand all over the world,” said the festival’s chief organiser Marje Hansar."

16 May 2011 Farewell Toronto!

Hello All
Sorry for the long delay since the last diary entry. I've been very busy for the last month or so over here in Canada working on a new album with The Cranberries.

The session has gone fantastically well. Those of you who liked the sound of the earlier Cranberries albums will love this new record I'm sure. We have recaptured the delicate darker mood of those early records and I'm delighted with the results!

So I'm sitting here in my hotel room waiting to leave for the airport listening to the new Danger Mouse LP 'Rome' (which is excellent) and looking forward to coming home. I've missed my family and I've missed my beloved QPR getting promotion! Had to listen on the internet to the RRRS finally winning promotion after the FA debacle and I can tell you there was a tear in eye when it was confirmed!

Anyway, back home tomorrow, short break then in to mixing the LP.

Regards to all.

Cheers

Stephen

[30 June 2011 New Cranberries album mixed
Hi All,

Just putting the finishing touches on the mixing of the new Cranberries recordings. The session has gone so well. Both the band and I are delighted with the results. They really are back on top form for this album!

We have 17 tracks finished but this will be probably whittled down to around 12 for the final cut. I'm sure the extra tracks will be heard in some format or other.

It's looking pretty busy for the next month or so with some interesting projects in the pipeline. I'll keep you up to date as things progress.

Until then.....

WORLD renowned rock photographer Andy Earl is in Limerick to shoot The Cranberries’ new album cover, his sixth for the band.


Earl, from Sussex, has photographed over 120 iconic album sleeves for acts as diverse as Pink Floyd, Madonna, Prince, Paul McCartney, Duran Duran, Robbie Williams, Morrissey and Johnny Cash and was due in Limerick on Monday to work with the band on their new cover.

The Cranberries are gearing up to release their sixth studio album later this year, their first since they reformed after a seven year absence in August 2009. Entitled ‘Roses’, the album was recorded in Toronto by the band with producer Stephen Street over a five week period in May and early March.

Previous to that, the band spent four weeks “rehearsing in Limerick going through new tracks for the upcoming album”. The band revealed on their official Twitter account late last week that Andy Earl was “coming to Limerick on Monday to shoot the cover for the new album. This will be Andy’s 6th album cover for the band!”.

While the band cancelled an appearance in Estonia last weekend because of an illness to a family member, they are scheduled to perform in Portugal this Saturday, followed by dates in Jakarta and Shanghai.

“Just planned an extra few hours rehearsal for next week and then off to Portugal next Friday,” read another tweet.

It is not known where the band will shoot the album cover for their latest studio album, but the prospect of an image of Limerick possibly appearing on the cover of the band’s record would be immensely beneficial, given that they have sold more than 40 million albums worldwide and remain incredibly popular around the world.

The quartet of Noel and Mike Hogan, Fergal Lawler and Dolores O’Riordan hit the big time in the early 90s with seminal album ‘Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We?’, going on to have huge success, in particular in the United States. Several members of the most famous band to emanate from the city still reside in Limerick.

After a period pursuing their own projects, they reunited in late 2009, performing a thumping set at the opening ceremony of the Special Olympics in Thomond Park in 2010, their first appearance in the stadium.

According to their website, the new album is due for release later this year.

Rumor

Citar
According to Hogan, the band had just wrapped up final edits and cover art for the 11-song record between touring Europe this month.
"We recorded 19 songs and think we might, and it's a big might, release an EP before the big album

Citar
From Faye Wong's verbatim cover of "Dreams" (in both mando and canto flavor) to college bands butchering "Zombie", Chinese video sites have chronicled Limerick-born The Cranberries' legacy of fandom in the middle kingdom that unlike the band, never took a break. 
 
"The fact that the people remember you after being gone for so many years, it's mad," explained guitarist Noel Hogan through e-mail about the band's recent resurrection and two-date visit to China, which closes with an appearance at Wukesong Arena on July 28. 
 
Despite a cancelation in Estonia during the European leg of their current tour earlier this month due to family illness, the Cranberries will still kick off their two-week Asian tour as scheduled in Jakarta on Friday, according to their agent Wednesday. 
 
After a seven-year split and reunification in 2009, the band's first-time China stint precedes the long-awaited album Roses; a reunion with long-time producer Stephen Street (the man behind 1992 breakthrough album Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? and follow-up No Need to Argue), which stylistically harks back their first two records with a more "relaxed" feel.
 
According to Hogan, the band had just wrapped up final edits and cover art for the 11-song record between touring Europe this month.
 
"We recorded 19 songs and think we might, and it's a big might, release an EP before the big album," he said. "The original plan was to do half a bit over the last few months, and then in September do the rest. But we just started clicking inside of the studio and next thing we knew, we had finished everything."
 
The album marks nearly 10 years since their last studio album Wake Up And Smell The Coffee (2001), which, released among the boy bands and rap metal popular at the time, garnered lukewarm reviews. According to reports, Roses contains re-recordings of earlier material written just before their 2003 split.
 
Despite the band members continuing on individual projects, such as frontwoman Dolores O'Riordan's solo record and Hogan's groups Mono Band and Arkitekt, he admitted that getting back together in 2009 after so many years was rough at first.
 
"At first, there were just problems everywhere, the sound was bad and it was kind of hard to remember everything. You know I personally hadn't played guitar in a year and a half for that point," revealed Hogan.
 
 But admittedly it was this period of getting familiar again and trying out new material on the road that prepped the band for their album release. 
 
"If we had gone recorded an album right away, we would have been freaking out; does anybody like it, does anybody remember who we are? It's a lot more relaxed to do it this way. How lucky we are to be able to do this and come back."
 
However, Hogan explains that releasing new material today is a far cry from the early 90s, where the culture of downloading that has drastically changed people's "buying habits" has affected record companies more than artists, and it serves them right.
 
"It's the way that people consume the music that has changed, but people will still come to you and say I love this song and I love that song, and that's all it matters, you know that's the joy of the music," he explained.
 
"Nowadays the record companies are down their knees because of downloading, but to be fair all those years record companies have destroyed some really good bands."
 Hogan feels the Internet has helped bands more than hurt them.
 
"You don't really have to have a million dollar contract or whatever, but you can still try to get it out there. I mean it's harder for a new band to get big without selling a record, it's so different from what we began. I guess we're old-schoolers now."
 
Although critics and fans say the band has toned down their political opinions and perhaps mellowed with age ("Zombie" was written about an IRA bombing while there's "no social commentary or politics anywhere" on the new album), Hogan explains the band was more about capturing moments in time rather than conscious social statements.
 
"Most of the songs are about relationships than anything else," explained Hogan. "Songs like 'Zombie' just captured something that was happening at that moment. It's not something that we spent too much time thinking about."
 
"Dolores writes something that captures her at that moment: it could be her kids, it could be her husband, it could be me, it could be you, it could be something she watched on CNN," he explained.
 
"If you write just really good songs, it won't age; So you better always follow what you believe, because mainstream trends come and go, and nobody remembers who those bands are anymore.

The Cranberries regroup

The multi-faceted Irish rock band play their first gig here in 10 years since breaking up, reports NATALIE KOH

AFTER 13 years of playing together, The Cranberries separated from each other to the dismay of their fans. But now, after seven years, they have reunited, and are returning to the Singapore Indoor Stadium almost 10 years after their last visit. The break was just what they needed to come back even better than before, with a not-so-new, but improved sound.

Drummer Fergal Lawler says that with their reunion comes the 'old Cranberries sound but an added freshness and maturity.' The Irish band, which shot to fame in the 1990s with their debut album Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?, broke up to pursue individual careers, as well as concentrate on their families in 2003.

'We needed some stability,' Lawler shares. 'So we decided to take time off. But three years became four, then five, then seven. So after seven years, we met up and said we should really do this because it marks 20 years of The Cranberries, which is an important milestone.'

During the break, Lawler set up a recording studio beside his house, dabbling in engineering and producing, while Michael Hogan, the band's bassist opened a few restaurants, and vocalist Dolores O'Riordan pursued a solo career, releasing two solo albums, Are You Listening? in 2007 and No Baggage in 2009.

When they finally reunited, it fell together surprisingly easily. 'It's a lot more relaxed, now that we've had our long break. We're basically a family. We've been doing this for over 20 years so we just get on with each other,' Lawler quips.

With a new album, Roses, under way, The Cranberries looks set for a roaring comeback. 'We're definitely back together for good,' Lawler ascertains. 'In our time off, we did little bits off the band and everyone brought back a freshness to the new album. The album sounds a lot different than it would have if we hadn't gone off to do our own things. The break was good to get some fresh ideas to bring back.'

The upcoming concert will feature signature hits like Zombie, Linger, Ode to My Family and Dreams, along with some sneak peeks at their new album, which is set to be released later this year.

Talking about their new songs, Lawler says: 'You would know it's The Cranberries. It's that distinct sound when four of us play together, which is missing when any one of us is not there. That's The Cranberries sound, and the new album will have that, but be a little more grown up.

'There will be a lot more softer songs. But they're not moody. They're soft but powerful at the same time,' he adds. 'We've added things we were afraid of before, like loops and backing tracks on records. It's a good thing for us, but it doesn't take away the natural sound of our music. There's a kind of maturity and confidence that wasn't there before.It feels like we've gone back but gone forward at the same time.'

And he reasserts that the band wouldn't have grown up without that seven-year break. 'We just had to go through that stage. Nobody was having fun or enjoying it anymore. We just needed to move on and find inspiration elsewhere.'

The Cranberries Live in Singapore is on at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Aug 1 at 8pm. Tickets priced at $198, $168, $138 and $98 (excluding administrative charges) are available from Sistic

GLEE could be taking to the streets of Dublin if one of its stars has her way.

Lea Michele, one of the main actors in the Fox series, wants to film an episode on the streets of the capital -- and she wants Irish rockers The Cranberries to star in it.

Lea (24), who plays Rachel, is a huge fan of singer Dolores O'Riordan (inset).

In an exclusive interview with the Herald, she said that the Limerick lady could follow in the footsteps of Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow by making a cameo appearance on the hit series.

And after visiting Dublin alongside her Glee co-stars last month, the gorgeous actress admits that it would be a dream come true if they were allowed to shoot on location in Ireland.

"Well actually, I'd love to have The Cranberries," she said when asked who she would like to see come after Gwyneth. "Oh my God, I was obsessed with them. I know people expect me to say Liza (Minnelli) and Barbra (Streisand), and don't get me wrong, I adore them, but how cool would it be to have New Directions singing Zombie. Dolores' voice is so haunting, she gives me chills. Maybe we could even have the band on the show. It could be filmed in Dublin for an episode special.

"Not that I have any sway in that department at all, but after visiting with my family a few years back and doing the Glee shows there I might push as hard as I can to make it happen," she added.

The Cranberries vuelven para quedarse. El grupo irlandíés, que se disolvió en 2001 tras el fracaso de su quinto disco, Wake up and Smell the Coffee, se reunió hace dos años para realizar una gira sin especificar si despuíés volverí­an a grabar juntos. Tras el íéxito de su regreso en directo, el grupo decidió esta primavera entrar en los estudios de grabación para registrar su sexto disco, que lleva por tí­tulo Roses.

The Cranberries ya han concluido la fase de grabación y se encuentran ultimando la producción y el lanzamiento de su nuevo álbum, que llegará a las tiendas despuíés del verano.

Roses está formado por 15 nuevas canciones que se han grabado entre los meses de abril y mayo en Toronto (Canadá) bajo la dirección de Stephen Street, productor habitual de The Cranberries.
Someday, Conduct, Show me the Way y Serendipity son algunos de los tí­tulos de los nuevos temas del grupo liderado por Dolores O’Riordan. Tal y como ha explicado el guitarrista y compositor Noel Hogan, “el sonido del nuevo álbum es una mezcla de los dos primeros discos, con introducción de nuevos elementos”.

El lanzamiento de Roses supone el regreso definitivo de The Cranberries y el abandono de los proyectos en solitario que los miembros del grupo han estado desarrollando en los últimos años. La cantante Dolores O’Riordan, que inició en 2007 una carrera como solista, ya ha acordado con el grupo que integrará lo mejor de su repertorio en solitario en la próxima gira del grupo.

La banda de Limerick, que editó su primer álbum en 1993, saltó a la fama en todo el mundo al año siguiente con la canción Zombie, que adelantaba la llegada de su segundo disco, No Need to Argue. La peculiar voz de Dolores O’Riordan convirtió a la artista en uno de los iconos de la díécada de los noventa, gracias a canciones como Zombie, Ode to my Family o Salvation.

No Need to Argue es el disco más importante de la carrera de The Cranberries y figura en el puesto 95 de la lista de los 100 discos más vendidos de la historia, despuíés de despachar 18 millones de copias en todo el mundo. Por el contrario, Wake up and Smell the Coffee, quinto y último disco de estudio del grupo hasta el momento, resultó el menos exitoso de su discografí­a y provocó la separación del grupo.

En 2010, la discográfica Island Records intentó animar la gira de reunión de The Cranberries con el lanzamiento del directo Bualadh Bos, que incluí­a grabaciones en vivo realizadas entre 1994 y 1998.
Tras el íéxito de este directo, la banda decidió sentarse a componer nuevos temas. En su regreso discográfico, el grupo se ha fijado el objetivo de recuperar en sus nuevas canciones el espí­ritu y el sonido de sus primeros discos.

El íéxito del estilo de The Cranberries en los años noventa no fue un caso aislado. Esta fue la díécada que vio triunfar al rock alternativo, un estilo independiente y heterogíéneo en el que caben el rock experimental, el punk rock, o incluso el folk rock.

ill give their fans a Valentine's Day present in 2012 with the Feb. 14 release of "Roses," the quartet's first studio album since "Wake Up and Smell the Coffee" in 2001.
 
The new release comes on the heels of a reunion that brought the group back to the road in  2009 after a six-year hiatus and has continued with periodic touring since then. "It's kind of picking up where we left off," singer Dolores O'Riordan tells Billboard.com about "Roses," noting that the group started working on some of the songs, including "Raining in My Heart," during 2003 before starting the hiatus.
 
"The whole thing was very lovely," adds O'Riordan, who released a pair of solo albums -- "Are You Listening?" in 2007 and "No Baggage" in 2009 -- during the interim. "It really came together really nicely. A lot of the tracks were written without really thinking about it. They just came. I suppose we had more respect for each other and what we were doing. In the latter days, towards 2003, we were just kind of going through the motions a bit. Now we're really happy and really appreciate what we have together."
 
O'Riordan also gives props to Stephen Street, producing his fourth Cranberries album, for leading the group smoothly through sessions in April and May at Metalworks Studios in Toronto. "Stephen was a really important ingredient since he knows the band really well," says O'Riordan, who lives in rural northern Ontario with her family.  "One thing I noticed about having Stephen was he taught me to stop trying. I began to try with my singing, and he was like, 'Relax. Just let it happen.' When you're on tour too much or on stage too much, you feel like you have to deliver and get this super-hyped vibe going. He cooled me down and got me into a place where I was just singing... as opposed to performing, which really helped."
 
O'Riordan says she and her bandmates -- guitarist Noel Hogan, bassist Michael Hogan and drummer Fergal Lawler -- recorded 15 songs during the Toronto sessions, 11 of which will appear on "Roses" while the others will be used as B-sides and bonus tracks. A first single is still being determined, though O'Riordan says she favors "Tomorrow" which, like many of "Roses' " other songs, was inspired by real-life concerns of adulthood, parenting and mortality. "It's about the way we sometimes hyper over-escalate things in our minds, overthink about things...when sometimes spontaneity and just jumping in is better," O'Riordan explains. "Tomorrow you might not have that moment back again. So it's really about moving on and also about kid of looking at the younger generation and how they worry about all kinds of silly things. They don't think they're silly, but when you're older you know better."
 
Getting back to the Cranberries sound, meanwhile, was no problem for the group, especially after playing 107 shows around the world -- including the band's first-ever dates in China during July. "It's really cool, the chemistry," O'Riordan says. "It's really just right. There's something there when we're together that's really good. It's not something that money can buy. It's not really something anyone can really emulate. It's got to do with energy and chemistry and that kind of thing. It's like putting on a perfect pair of shoes. It just fits."
 
"Roses" will be released on Downtown Records/Cooking Vinyl in the U.S., and on Cooking Vinyl worldwide on Feb. 13. The Cranberries are planning to play  Australia in March, while O'Riordan is expecting more dates to follow "Roses' " release, including a return to North America.
 
The Track List for "Roses" Includes:
1. "Conduct"
2. "Tomorrow"
3. "Fire & Soul"
4. "Raining In My Heart"
5. "Losing My Mind"
6. "Schizophrenic Playboys"
7. "Waiting In Walthamstow"
8. "Show Me"
9. "Astral Projections"
10. "So Good"
11. "Roses"

Show Me

show me to the end of the night

show me to the end of the day

show me to the end of tomorrow

 

show to me the path I should take

show to me the choice I should make

show me direction

 

show me the way

show me today

 

and if I ever lose my way

and if I ever go astray

show me direction

 

take me to the darkest hour

show to me the strength and power

give me the key

The Cranberries are back! The original Irish four-piece fronted by Dolores O’Riordan, who lit up the charts for over a decade with classics such as “Linger”, “Dreams” and “Zombie” will release their first new studio album in over 10 years.
They’ve sold more than 30 million records, with four Top 20 Billboard albums and a total of eight hit singles. They’ve performed to millions of fans across the globe including several appearances for the Pope. They’ve graced the covers of Rolling Stone and SPIN Magazine, performed on Letterman and Leno. And now after taking a few years out to raise their families, the band are thrilled to be back with Roses, their sixth studio album and the first since Wake Up And Smell The Coffee in 2001.

“I always had the attitude that there would be another album,” says guitarist Noel Hogan. “We just agreed we needed to get away from it for a while. But now it’s great to be back.”

The new phase in The Cranberries career comes on the back of a successful reunion tour in 2010 which had them crisscrossing the globe playing to sold-out audiences every night. But it was during sound checks on the tour that Dolores, guitarist Noel Hogan, his brother Mike on bass and Fergal Lawler on drums found time to trade ideas and melody hints in the search for some brand new songs from that distinctive Cranberries sound.

The result is Roses, 11 new songs from The Cranberries. Produced by the band’s old friend and collaborator Stephen Street (The Smiths, Blur and more recently Kaiser Chiefs) the songs on Roses sound like nuggets buried deep inside The Cranberries’ soul harking back to the freshness and acoustic originality of the band’s first two albums, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Cant We? and No Need To Argue. The innocence is back in the melodies, which are given plenty of room to breathe while the words have matured to explore the twists and turns of life’s uncertain paths.

The songs vary in pace and mood, from the soft and summery “Fire and Soul” to the reggae infused “Raining In My Heart” and the sweeping storm that rages within “Conduct Yourself.” Free of the constant routine of tours and albums that drove the band prior to their hiatus the songs on Roses come from a band with a renewed hunger to get the sound just right. And in every corner you’ll find the extraordinary sound of Dolores O’Riordan’s voice, the pivotal instrument which transformed this band from a group of young Irish hopefuls at the edge of the 80s into an MTV sensation and worldwide supergroup within just a few short years.

Originally formed in 1989 as The Cranberry Saw Us, Noel, Mike and Fergal first met Dolores O’Riordan in May 1990 after she auditioned for them shortly after their original singer left the band. They knew instantly they had found an extraordinary voice and a songwriter whose lyrics could compliment Noel’s unique guitar sound. The hits were just around the corner and soon after signing to Island Records the single “Linger” was adopted by MTV in America who played the video every hour. The soft-sided tune went on to become a massive worldwide hit, followed by the sharper edged “Dreams”. A fairytale start to an unforgettable decade.

The Cranberries returned in 1994 with the second Stephen Street produced album, No Need To Argue. Keeping abreast of the 90s taste for grunge, the album skipped between the fully loaded “Zombie” which scorched a trail to the No. 1 slot across the world and the softer, more reflective “Ode To My Family”. Album sales were huge. Between them, the first two releases alone notched up more than 20 million copies. Demands on the band’s time rose, fans rioted at a free show in the U.S.  By the time they came off the road to record the follow-up, The Cranberries were among the biggest bands in the world.

The third album, To The Faithful Departed was released in 1996 and mirrored the frantic pace of the lives of the four members. With Aerosmith producer Bruce Fairburn at the controls, the band’s sound put the innocence away and turned up the volume in favour of a faster, harder rock style with songs like “Free To Decide”, “When You’re Gone” and – still a big crowd pleaser to this day – “Salvation.”

In 1999, they released their fourth album Bury The Hatchet, a way of making peace with the pop and rock audience. With a two year interval from the public gaze they served up a more relaxed mix of pop and rock in singles such as “Promises”, Animal Instinct” and “Just My Imagination.” After a lengthy world tour, they reunited with original producer Stephen Street in 2001 to make their fifth album Wake Up And Smell The Coffee, featuring top tracks “Analyze” and “Pretty Eyes”. The tours rolled out one after another and in between performances they somehow found the time to promote Stars, a 20 track compilation of their very best, released in 2002.

In September 2003, as they considered recording another album, the band put the brakes on what had turned into an endless routine of performing and recording and went their separate ways. Glad of the break, the four who had all married by this time stepped out of the glare and returned home to raise their young families. The break proved quite successful in that respect.  At a recent children’s party in Limerick, to which all four members were invited, they realized there are now more than a dozen little Cranberries!

But during their time off from each other, some of the members continued to explore new sounds. Dolores released two solo albums, Are You Listening in 2007 and two years later No Baggage. Noel continued to write and produce releasing Mono Band in 2005 and later, Arkitekt.  Fergal fed in to several acts in the local Limerick scene including The Low Network and Brendan Markham. And Mike stayed out of studios altogether, preferring to run a successful restaurant in Limerick city.

In 2009, Mike joined his brother Noel to perform some Cranberries songs at a college event in Dublin to honour Dolores. Of the performance Dolores says “The minute we started playing it felt like we’d never stopped. There’s something about playing with the Cranberries, it’s like putting on the pair of perfect shoes.  It’s a chemistry. It just fits.” By then, Noel was back in touch with his former lead singer, sending her a variety of musical ideas for new songs. The small acoustic event helped ease the partnership back together again and within the year the Cranberries were testing the waters with some low-key shows. The following year saw them back up to speed again with a world tour featuring the very best of The Cranberries.

Some of the songs from the latest album date back to the days before they paused The Cranberries in 2003, like “Astral Projection” and “Raining In My Heart”. Others come from the sound checks in 2010, like “Serendipity,” “Conduct Yourself,” and the seize-the-day themed first single “Tomorrow.” But there were still a few surprises at the last minute during recording at Metalworks in Toronto in April and May of 2011. On an evening off as Dolores was going in to watch the movie Limitless, she listened to a melody Noel had saved for her. She loved it instantly and later that night wrote the lyrics to it calling the song “Roses”. The song is now the title of the album, the sixth from The Cranberries and one they are confident will please their fans and win a legion of new ones.

Sir Terry Wogan eases you into your Sunday morning with music and musings. This week, he catches up with the Welsh comedian, actor, impressionist and author Rob Brydon; and The Cranberries perform in session.

Perhaps best known as Uncle Bryn in the hit BBC series Gavin and Stacey, Rob Brydon first rose to fame in Marion And Geoff, and recently appeared alongside long-time collaborator Steve Coogan in the critically acclaimed The Trip. He's just released an autobiography, Small Man In A Book, which details his self-professed slow ascent to fame and fortune.

The Cranberries formed in Sir Terry's native Limerick and rose to international fame in the 1990s, when they became one of the most successful rock acts of the 90s, selling over fifteen million albums in the United States alone. The band have recorded their sixth album, Roses, which is due for release next year.

Muere el padre de Dolores!!

Citar
Sunday November 27 2011

Terence Patrick O'Riordan, father of rock star Dolores O'Riordan, has died at his home in Limerick.

The 74-year-old from Holy Cross passed away at home in Ballybricken, according to his daughter Dolores.

"He battled cancer for nearly six years. His faith kept him alive, though. He waited until 6pm to die because he loved the Angelus," Dolores, lead singer of internationally successful Limerick band The Cranberries, told me yesterday.

Her father, she said, was with all his children (Terence, Brendan, Donal, PJ, Joseph, Angela and Dolores) his wife Eileen, and his lifelong friend Father McNamara "when he took his final breath".

"He was always a fighter. We'll really miss him. A great father, entertainer, accordion player, singer and gardener. We are relieved now he's not struggling any more.

"He was a farm labourer until his bike accident in 1968," Dolores told me yesterday morning, "which left him invalided with permanent brain damage. He kept a garden. That kept him alive.

"He was more popular in Limerick than myself. He married mom in 1961. She was 17 and he was 24. They had nine children. Seven survived. I was the youngest. He told me I was lucky number seven. He told me he was so proud of me. He was a lovely man."

"He looks so peaceful now," Dolores wrote in a text to me shortly after he died on Friday. "I miss him but I feel happy. I was holding his hand and a candle."

Dolores would appear to have inherited her father's faith. After meeting Pope John Paul II at the Vatican a few years ago, she remarked: "[He] was lovely, very saintly. I was mad about him. I thought he really cared for the poor and he loved to meet the people. I saw him when he came to Limerick, when I was a kid. So it was pretty mindblowing ...

"My father was a beautiful, kind, funny man. He was a great patient during his long, weary battle. He never complained. He was bed-ridden for the last few months.

"He lost everything. His car, his garden, his freedom. His health. But he always kept his dignity.

"My mother will always love him. He held on to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary this year on November 14."

As Dolores sings herself in Linger, "If you, if you could return ... "

BANDMATES of Cranberries lead singer Dolores O'Riordan rallied around her yesterday at her father's funeral Mass.

Terry O'Riordan (74) died at his home last Friday and friends and neighbours of the O'Riordan family gathered at Ballybricken Church, Co Limerick, to pay their respects.

Mr O'Riordan fought bravely against cancer for almost six years before his death.

Ms O'Riordan, who now lives in Ontario in Canada, was with her father and family in Limerick when he died. She was joined at the church yesterday by her bandmates Fergal Lawler and Noel and Mike Hogan.

Ms O'Riordan arrived for the ceremony with family members some 30 minutes before it began and was seated inside the small church alongside her mother Eileen, brothers Terence, Brendan, Donal, Joseph and PJ, and sister Angela.

Canon Liam McNamara led the service and paid tribute to Mr O'Riordan, whom he described as "a very gentle, kind person and a peacemaker".

A deck of cards, an accordion, a 'Laurel and Hardy' DVD and garden tools were among the gifts presented to Canon McNamara as reflections of Mr O'Riordan's life.

A family photo was placed near his coffin and floral tributes read: 'Grandad', 'Husband' and 'Dad'.

Canon McNamara said Ms O'Riordan's father used to laugh a lot in life.

"I am quite sure he is laughing with joy in heaven now. It is a very noble quality to be filled with joy. With Terry, there was a time for everything -- laughter, enjoyment, recreation and playing the accordion," the priest said.

He recalled that the talented musician used to entertain all with his accordion on bus trips home from many pilgrimages to Knock.

Canon McNamara said Mr O'Riordan was very thankful and appreciative to those that were with him and helped him in his last hours. Don Burton -- husband of Ms O'Riordan and former tour manager with Duran Duran -- spoke briefly before the final journey to the nearby Caherelly cemetery.

Mr Burton said he had the privilege of knowing Terry for 20 years.

"I'll miss the sound of Terry. Terry loved life and loved playing the box (accordion)," he said.

"Most of all, he loved his wife Eileen, seven children and 2,000 grandchildren," Mr Burton said to the laughter of mourners gathered inside the church.

Next February, the Cranberries will release their eagerly anticipated album entitled 'Roses'. It is their sixth album and their first in 10 years.

The following month, they are due to tour Australia.

SHELLEY MARSDEN meets Dolores O’Riordan and Noel Hogan of The Cranberries to talk about panic attacks, growing up and getting their mojo back…
.
Fresh from a morning at Radio Two in the company of long-time fan and fellow Limerick native Terry Wogan (they sang Linger at Terry’s behest, and the new single Tomorrow), Dolores O’Riordan and Noel Hogan are looking chilled out and happy when I meet them in the lobby of a Kensington hotel.
.
Noel is thoughtful, and softly spoken while Dolores, despite a clear case of cold, is positively bubbly. Both seem extremely relaxed, and it becomes clear that the ups and downs of their time in The Cranberries – at one point one of the biggest rock acts of the 90s, selling over 15 million albums in the US alone – has led them to a somewhat philosophical viewpoint on life and what’s important.
.
The band are back and touring with a new album Roses, the first for a decade, due out next month. They also reveal they have aLondondate for mid June. But this time round, the pressure’s off – it seems Dolores and Co. really are in it for the kicks.
.
Demons have been battled, babies have been had, loved ones have been lost and the group have, quite simply, grown up. The new songs reflect this more mature outlook (there are no angry anthems in here against “their bombs and their guns”), but Roses, under the direction of producer Stephen Street, has also managed to distil that gorgeous Cranberries sound that so many of us first fell in love with.
.
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE BACK?
.
N: Well we’ve been playing as The Cranberries for two years now really, with the tour in 2010. We get tons of time off, too. But it’s not like before where it was just all you did!
.
D: Yeah, it just got boring, it became a job. Having kids and things has given us a good balance in life. Before, you’d stop touring and it was this mad anti-climax. Now when we go home we’re very busy being parents as well… we’ve got a good balance. No matter what you do in life, it is nice to have kids. It’s the future, you know?
.
DID YOU STAY IN TOUCH AFTER THE BAND SPLIT IN 2003?
.
D: After 2003, we kind of lost touch for a couple of years. In around 2005 Noel and I started emailing stuff to each other. We’d send each other ideas creatively again.
.
N: The bulk of the album is songs that we were kind of working on and sharing ideas about since then. Dolores had her own stuff as well, so it’s a combination of both. When the two boys came back, we played them some stuff, and… it just fell together really naturally. When we started the reunion tour, there was never talk of an album. It was really for the fun of being able to write, and not have any pressure.
.
YOU’RE TOURING ACROSS EUROPE – WHAT ABOUT THE UK?
.
N: We’ve actually just confirmed a gig forLondon – we’ll be announcing the date and venue very soon, but it will be mid-June 2012.
.
DID YOU HAVE RESERVATIONS ABOUT A ‘REUNION’ AT FIRST?
.
D: It didn’t really kick in until 2009, when I met the lads at an event at Trinity College, where I had been made an honorary patron of the Philosophical Society. I rang Noel and said ‘Look, they want me to do a few acoustic songs, will you come with me?’ He said ‘Yeah, I’d love to, I’ll get Mike as well’. So I met the lads there. I was living inCanada – I still am – and hadn’t seen Mike or Noel at that given point for six and a half years! Sometimes it’s a year before I see siblings and nieces; I have a huge family, 43 nieces and nephews!
.
WHAT WAS THAT FIRST MEETING LIKE?
.
D: It was as if we hadn’t stepped away from each other at all. There was no awkwardness; if anything there was an element of, “Let me scrutinise you until I see how you’ve changed”. It was so comfortable, a feeling of family. As a band, you’re put on a bus, squashed into confined areas all the time, it’s unnatural. Can you get any closer? No, we’re on top of each other! But it does leave you with that closeness. And when it’s gone for a while, and you get it back, it’s a nice feeling.
.
TEN YEARS IS A LIFETIME IN MUSIC. ARE YOU APPREHENSIVE ABOUT A CRANBERRIES ALBUM AFTER SO LONG?
.
D: Do ya know, we’re very chilled out actually. It’s all about having fun and enjoying it, day by day. A lot of stuff happens on the journey of life; you see a lot of things. If anything, we feel very fortunate to have gorgeous children, and enjoyed the success we had when we were young, and not gone completely mental. Well, at least I don’t think we have, have we?!
.
HAVE YOU CHANGED A LOT AS PEOPLE?
.
N: Yeah, it’s just maturity. No matter what you do in life, as you get older your views change on most things. When ‘this’ was all we had before there were families and other lives outside of the music, you scrutinised everything so much. You got worked up about silly things, whereas now, you realise there’s far more in life. The Cranberries as a priority has dropped. Even though we love doing it, we have so many other things that are important to us. It makes it all a lot easier. We’re far more relaxed; we don’t think we know everything any more.
.
HAS ‘ROSES’ CAPTURED THE QUINTESSENTIAL CRANBERRIES?
.
D: Definitely, it’s captured what it was we had the first couple of albums, really. Like his album, it was that vibe of… just doing it for a laugh, we had no contracts. And the material turned out to be good. It’s when you’re not trying that you write good stuff. After all the success, we were trying to write a lot of rockers, and went through the angry person phase…You’re young and famous and everybody’s asking you to write another song, write another song, and it’s very hard to move on because people won’t let you. So you’re subliminally trying to write another hit, and it doesn’t work. It’s when you throw everything down, and you have no expectations and you’re away from the public eye that the good stuff comes.
.
YOU WORKED ON IT WITH PRODUCER AND OLD FRIEND STEPHEN STREET. HOW WAS THAT?
.
D: Having had the experience of working with so many different people, you develop your confidence. When we worked on our first two albums with Stephen, he’d worked with Blur and people – as kids it was a little intimidating - “oh my god, he worked with The Smiths!” But now it’s grand, we’ve had so much success since then together. We then did an album Wake Up and Smell the Coffee during the 90s, which I just cannot remember. Noel can’t either.
.
THAT’S IMPRESSIVE MEMORY LOSS! WHY WAS THAT?
.
D: We were on tour, and we were obviously doing too much because… some things just are a bit of a blur when you’re living that life. That album wasn’t really here nor there. It was after I had my first daughter. I didn’t do much of a tour after it, I had two little kids at that stage… In 2003 I remember thinking, what am I doing rushing back out on tour for? I’ll never have my kids at this age again. I did not want to be in a band. We stopped, and it was the best thing we ever did.
.
N: Looking back, the writing was on the wall a little bit for the band. The fun element had gone a bit. It felt like a bit of a duty. We weren’t bouncing out the door like we used to. Though it was scary to leave it all, because we went into the band from school, it’s all we’d ever known. But that’s what was great about Roses; the songs on there we’ve come up with over the years, in our own time. And with modern technology you could advance everything a bit more. Also, we had no record company banging on the door with release dates.
.
D: You’ve got to take a break when you feel the magic’s gone. It’s like any relationship. If your marriage has gone stale, you can work on it, take a break, then come back and see what you had to begin with.
.
‘ROSES’ IS CERTAINLY ABOUT GROWN UP THEMES - PARENTHOOD, DIFFERENT RELATIONSHIPS, ONE’S MORTALITY…
.
D: Oh yeah. When you have kids you think, it’s actually quite hard being a grown-up! It’s much easier to be a young woman jumping around the stage and acting like an idiot than a mum with responsibilities. Having that balance of keeping the excitement and then taking a break when it gets too much is great. It’s all about choices… but sometimes you can’t see the forest for the trees.

ranberries: 'It's Not Going To Be Hard To Deliver 'Roses''
It is –2 degrees in Ontario, Canada, Dolores O'Riordan's home now for eight years. There are six days before Christmas and it is as cold—proverbially speaking—as the anatomical part of a broom-flying hag. "Snotsicles," she jokes over the telephone, her Limerick brogue as thick as the blanket of white covering her front porch. "Do you know what they are? Your boogers freeze during the winter. It's that cold here." She is in a playful and positive mood and why not? After a six-year hiatus, the singer has reunited with her fellow Irishmen to record Roses, the band's first album since 2001's Wake Up And Smell The Coffee.

Produced by Stephen Street — he oversaw their first two albums — Roses is tempered by the dark moodiness and delicate balance of acoustic and electric guitars that haunted the group's earlier records. She sings with the inner strength of someone who has walked through fire and lived to tell the tale. Her father passed away while recording the album and on the title track she is singing about him. The vocal is dramatic and yearning and burns with an inner intensity bright enough to warm even the coldest Canadian morning. Appropriately enough, Roses comes out on Valentine's Day.

UG: Before we get to the new album, could we talk about some of the events leading up to the recording of Roses?

Dolores O'Riordan: Yeah, no problem.

Why did the Cranberries break up back in 2003?

That was more to do with life. My mother-in-law had cancer and she died in 2003 and so that year we moved over here to Canada so her grandchildren could be with her for her last days. I quit the band then because I could see that in life there's a lot more things than just making music and being on the stage and selling records. There's people and there's love and there's more important things you know and nothing is forever. You know that kind of thing. So we moved over here then [Canada] and when she passed away I started working on a solo record for fun and I became a fulltime mother and I loved it. Because I just wanted to not be in the Cranberries and not be famous. I wanted to experience life in a simple way. I felt like I was always tied down with things and I just felt that if I wasn't in the band, I have a freedom that I never had since I was 18, you see, because I was in the Cranberries since I was 18. I never knew life any other way so I did want to know life in another way — I wanted to be free.

Were you excited about making your first solo album.

I left the band and started doing solo work more like a hobby. The first album that I brought out, my solo one, was Are You Listening? And I remember there was a beautiful song on it called "The Black Widow" and that was reflecting my mother-in-law when she was sick. A lot of the music are reflections of where I am and where I'm going and what I'm feeling.

You worked with Marco Mendoza on Are You Listening?

Yeah, that one happened very organically. Marco is a friend of my husband for years and it happened organically; he's an old friend.

So you're not some closet headbanger, Dolores?

[Laughs] No, no, no, that was just very organic. He's amazing Marco though isn't he? Have you ever seen him live playing?

I may have seen him with Whitesnake.

That's right, yeah, yeah; he's a super bass player. So it was great to work with different musicians. It was a great experience because it was like having a different palette and a different set of paints and a different canvas.

Was there a sense of anticipation or nerves when you recorded Are You Listening?

I suppose I wasn't really knowing that people were listening because I called it Are You Listening? See? So I didn't really know. It was like, "Are you listening?" I was wondering who'd be listening? So that was kind of a part of my evolution and I had to have fun and not be in the Cranberries. I worked with different musicians and that was quite insightful. I did a small tour for Are You Listening? about eight months or something and I'd come back a lot as well. I'd go out for a few weeks and then I'd come home for a few weeks and I'd go out for a few weeks and I'd come home for a few weeks and that's the way I do it you know. ‘Cause I have my children and it keeps me stable and just the mental stability that I didn't have when I was younger when the Cranberries was my whole life and it kind of ended up consuming me. It was too much too young and nothing else. So having my children now, I have four children, it's given me a great stability and a happiness and a life.

In 2009, you recorded the second solo album, No Baggage around the same time you got back together with the Cranberries?

I know wasn't it desperate? Oh, my god. I did the album, No Baggage, right? And again it was all about enlightening and finding out about life and what I was going through. The song, the single was "The Journey" wasn't it?

"I felt like I was always tied down with things and I just felt that if I wasn't in the band, I have a freedom that I never had since I was 18."
An extraordinary song.

[Recites lyrics] "When I was lost/I saw you pointing towards the sun/I know I am not the only one standing here/And in the darkness I was walking through the night/I could see your guiding light very clear." So I was getting happy in my life — I was going through a better place now with tranquility and serenity and love and peace. But I was also trying to share that feeling with people.

You recorded No Baggage before the Cranberries reformed?

It did, yeah. I'd written it all, right? That was winter; I remember it was January 2010. What year did we do the reunion tour? It was 2010 wasn't it?

I thought it was 2009 but certainly you'd know better than I.

2007 was Are You Listening? so I think 2008 I wrote. So 2009 then I recorded No Baggage and I did most of it here with my friend Dan Broadbeck in his studio and stuff like that. Then ‘cause I live here and I'm a fulltime mom, I just said "Look" because it was freezing, it was -30 and I grabbed my makeup chair and I went out to the lake and put on an outfit and my husband took pictures of me on the lake. And then the album sleeve — did you see that sleeve? It was really freezing and in one of the shots I took my top off but I was facing a tree and I had a tube of lipstick in my pocket. And he wrote down No Baggage on my back and took pictures of it. And then for one more shot I said, "You know what? I always wanted to be up in a tree." So we got a ladder and I climbed way up the tree and it was freezing like –30. And when I got to the top of the tree what was worse is they had to pass me up my shoes, I think. Oh, it was so crazy but then we took the pictures of me up in a tree kind of like a bird sitting on a branch of the tree.

Did the two solo albums feed you creatively or did you want to do another Cranberries record at some point?

Well, that was No Baggage and once I done it and we recorded it all and then we did our own sleeve and we did it all very organic. And then I thought I'd go and tour a spot. My son, it was his confirmation then in 2009 so I had it all done, No Baggage and ready to release it and all that kind of thing. But in 2009 it was in the summer and he was having his confirmation, my son, and that's like a big thing in Ireland. I suppose it's like what in the Jewish equivalent is a bar mitzvah — it's this kind of thing, a coming of age and a rejoyceful thing. So I invited the Cranberries because it was in Limerick and they all came and they brought all their children and it was my first time seeing them in something like seven years.

It was a real Cranberries family reunion.

I hadn't seen Ferg [drummer Fergal Lawler] for seven years by then and they had their kids and they had all these children. And I was like, "Oh lord, look at this — we're expanding." So all of our kids were like hanging out and having fun. And then you know, I guess we were relaxing and whatnot after the meal and having a beer and whatnot and it was kinda like, "Will we get back together?" And it was like, "Yeah, I think so because we're not getting any younger — we're getting older." So it was like, "OK, plan B." I said, "I don't want to go on tour with No Baggage but I'd rather go back and do a Cranberries tour." So that was all kinda just very organic and not thought about; it just happened that way.

How did it feel when you reformed?

It was like new and comfortable slippers that you kind of went, "Ehh, I love these slippers" [laughs]. Just an old comfortable feeling and also a feeling of, "Oh, when we all met up like that, we all felt like teenagers again" but just the obvious reminder would be that a gray hair was there. It was like, "No, we're not 16" but there is that feeling when we're together like we're onstage that you never really grow old.

The music world has changed a lot since the Cranberries recorded Wake Up and Smell the Coffee back in 2001. Did you think about any of that?

No, I don't really pay any attention to that. It doesn't interest me and it's not significant to me. To me it's what happens in the world and it's the day-to-day occurrences. But that's not important to me because when I was doing Roses my father was sick and had cancer for six-and-a-half years. The "Roses" song was about him and he passed away three weeks ago and I was there holding his hand.

I'm so sorry.

Actually he was so sick for so long, it was good that he was out of pain. But I was actually holding his hand, which was like a long dream for me that I'd be with him. And so there's a kind of feeling of peace when you find that your loved one is at peace. And so, yes, "Roses" is reflecting on that thing in life. You know what I mean? The circle of life and how when someone goes someone new comes in the door. Little babies are being born and all that stuff.

Back in 2010 doctors found a vocal cord nodule. Was that upsetting?

Oh no, I've had them before. It's from too much singin' and just getting old. You just have to kind of get up and get on with it you know. What Iis say is me old chassis isn't what it used to be—but it could be worse!

Your singing on Roses was wonderful.

Ahh, thanks very much. That's cool. I'm glad you liked it.

You've brought back Stephen Street who worked on the early records to produce the Roses album.

The important thing about Stephen is that he kind of knows us better than we know ourselves as a group ‘cause he was the one who did the first two albums. He knows us very well since we were young and also because he's a little older than us he'd have a good way of putting us together. Trying to get the four bandmembers in a room is hard you know. ‘Cause the last time we were together when I saw Mike [Hogan] we did Singapore Stadium and I haven't seen him since because we all have separate lives with kids and we live in different countries. So to get us all together and kind of coordinate us a bit. Because we're right artists and it's like, "Where's he gone now? He's supposed to be here at three o'clock." We're not the greatest at timing and all that stuff but when you get us together and kind of get us focused then it's grand.

After having taken that hiatus and recorded two solo albums, do you think you brought in different elements as a composer and singer?

Definitely. Oh, yeah, for sure. And even for Noel as well now in hindsight although at first they were kind of not into the whole hiatus idea. They weren't really into it but I said, "I have to do this." But in hindsight now Noel says as well that on that hiatus he learned a huge amount musically and he brought some of that to this album too. Because "Roses" was something he did an awful lot of that on ProTools. When I was away I wrote "Tomorrow Could Be Too Late," the single. I wrote that on my own and Noel wrote and we came in and kind of put it all together in Toronto with Stephen Street.

"It's harder on your body really so this one is going to be a lot more gentle physically."
Some songs like "Astral Projections" were actually written back in 2003.

I know some of them are ancient. "Astral Projections" took my head in because it happens to me all the time. I'm asleep and I can see myself asleep and it's terrible because it's like you know you're asleep and you try to wake yourself up but you can't. You keep trying to wake yourself up and eventually when you do wake up you're all covered in sweat and you're really hot. And they're also dreams that I wake up and I dream I'm walking down the stairs and maybe I'm going into the kitchen or somewhere like that. But then I actually realize that that's just a dream and I'm still in bed. I have funny dreams like that and maybe it's the creative mind. I don't really know.

When you listen to "Astral Projections" and "Raining in My Heart" that were written back in 2003, do they take on a different character than the songs that were written more recently?

Yeah, that's true really because it does go back to 2003 that some of them were written and some are newborns. So, uh, there's a good mix, a good spectrum, a good radius across the board of all the different kinds of times and reflections of different types of songs really.

Is there a special way in which the Cranberries write songs?

It's all different. "Tomorrow Could Be Too Late" and the songs that I wrote on the album, I had my friend Dan Broadbeck come over here and we made demos around my ideas. Then the ones that are co-written with Noel would be ones that he was sending me ProTools sessions from Ireland of music he was playing with. It was done over seven years on and off because even when I was doing Are You Listening? and stuff, Noel was still sending me little bits of ideas although I hadn't seen him for six-and-a-half or seven years until I met him at Trinity College and we did a little bash there. You know they inaugurated me into the what's-it-called? The society? It's kind of an artistic society in Trinity.

The University Philosophical Society.

That's it, yes. So we had that inauguration there in January of 2009 and I did meet Mike and Noel and they played with me and we performed there. And then it was that summer we met at my son's confirmation and things just unfolded.

"Show Me" is the first singles from Roses and has the strings that have always been a part of the band's sound.

Is that the first single there [in the U.S.]? Oh, really? That's a beautiful song isn't it? I like it because it's just asking the Great One to show you the way in life because everybody gets lost and everybody has challenges. You know what I mean? If you believe in yourself and believe in God and things like that then you'll be fine.

As the first single, was "Show Me" meant to reintroduce the world to the Cranberries?

No, ‘cause I wrote that here of course a few years ago. I'm not sure because to be honest with you I think changes take their own shape these days with the music industry. I think things take a life of their own because of the Internet and stuff things are different. I think the people make the choice.

"Tomorrow" was released as the second single?

I don't know if they're released or not. I haven't a clue about that. Maybe that was it [this is the song that Dolores earlier referred to as "Tomorrow Could Be Too Late"] ‘cause I know that's number nine in Italy or something. Somebody said it was number nine in Italy but I don't think the video's out yet ‘cause I made the video the day my dad passed so that's not released yet.

Did you play any guitars on Roses?

I do play guitar live but not in the studio. I'm cuttin' back on it a lot ‘cause I've got a little bit of a spinal rotation from bad posture over the years and problems with my shoulder and my arm. So I can't really do that anymore. I'm damaged goods, baby.

You're better than ever.

Ah, you know I'm grand but I have to take it easy so I just try to sing. I play live alright but it's just that the less I play the less the problem you know.

Are you playing the keyboards on "Fire & Soul"?

Hold on now—what track is that? No, I played in "Show Me" the string part. Or in "Linger" the string part; those kinds of parts. These little pieces, they'd probably be Noel or Stephen playing the little accents to accentuate the beauty.

"Schizophrenic Playboy" was kind of a rocker for you.

Yeah, a little something lighthearted and a little something tongue-in-cheek to get away from the serious stuff you know.

At the end of the song you turn the lyric around so it says, "Schizophrenic playgirls/Better watch out."

Yeah, it's pretty cool isn't it? Because it is it's turning it around exactly 360 degrees.

Are you deliberate in your approach to writing lyrics?

Yeah, lyrics are very important for me to make sure that I'm portraying whatever it is I need to portray. So I sit there but the funny thing is they've come to me anywhere like when you're washing your sheets or something like that. "Oh, I have to go get a pen quick." In the middle of the night when you're trying to go to sleep and they're going around in your head, your words, and you just get up and go out and write them down. Or even I've actually dreamed songs so I've had to get up. I had a dream about a song and getting up and writing it—dreaming a song while you're asleep. That's kind of mad isn't it?

Pretty amazing.

Mmm, but that's the creative brain I'd say you know.

"Roses" is the last song on the album and the final lyric you sing is "Life is a garden of roses/Roses just wither and die." Are you expressing hope in that refrain?

Oh, there's definitely hope because everybody dies but with death comes spiritual peace and peace in your heart. It's the end of any struggle that you might be having because we all get old and we all die but that's a new beginning.

Are you critical of your vocals? Do you know when it's a keeper?

Yeah, yeah, of fer sure. Like on "Roses" was actually the last song written and that's when we said we'd call it "Roses." We were in the studio and I remembered I was going into the Galaxy Cinema with my kids to see Puss ‘N Boots or something; some kiddie show. I was sittin' there and of course I had my phone you see and I texted Noel and I said, "Send me through that track" and he goes, "What one?" He refers to his tracks as C1 or C7 or whatever and I said, "You know that one you sent me the other day." And then he sent me "Roses" by an accident. He said, "This one?" ‘cause he's loads of ideas.

And I put in my headset and I almost started crying; it just totally got to me in the jugular. You know that kind of thing? It just really hit a point there and I wrote those lyrics in about two minutes when I was at the cinema with my kids who are waiting to go in you know. I said, "Hang on, hang on, I have to write this down." The next morning I just started singing it and we all kinda knew there was something very fresh and raw and real there. So we recorded it basically the next day.

"I think I've heard shows are in March in Australia. And then I think America over the summer and Europe and stuff like that."
Did you have that feeling when you did "Dreams" from the first album, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?

I think what happened was it was released in England and it didn't catch on. We were signed to a different record company in America so then America re-released it and then it caught on in the States and then they re-released it back in the UK again and it caught on in the UK. Something like that.

Did you think you'd captured something with "Dreams"?

No, I was just a very naпve child really and I was just singing about my first boyfriend. I didn't have a clue; I was just really naпve you know.

In 1994 you did the second album, No Need To Argue.

That was kind of a hard time in my life you know. Yeah, obviously No Need To Argue and the lyrics and all of that. But now is the best time.

In 1996 when you did the third album, To the Faithful, Departed, you brought in producer Bruce Fairbairn to replace Stephen Street. Why?

It was just a different dynamic you know and he really was enjoying it because he loved the idea of working with a band like us. We were so different to what he'd worked with before. So he used to say it was like a stew and putting in all different ingredients and it all comes out a certain way in the end. Oh, I miss him [Fairbairn passed away on May 17, 1999] you know but that's life. It was great to work with him.

"Salvation" was the first single from To the Faithful, Departed and had horns and a lot of different things for the Cranberries.

Yeah, and the horns and all of that was very much Bruce's idea.

In 1994 the band recorded the fourth record, Bury the Hatchet, which was a bit heavier for the Cranberries.

Hard, hard, yeah; aggressive like. That was a hard one as well because the vocals are all very aggressive whereas this one [Roses] is very gentle and it's easy to perform.

Singing the types of songs that are on Roses is what you feel you do best?

Roses is nice because it's not going to be hard to deliver it. It's just when you do an album and you do the rock songs well then you're kind of roaring it off so it's harder. It's harder on your body really so this one is going to be a lot more gentle physically.

The Cranberries will once again go out on the road and tour?

Yeah, fer sure. I think I've heard shows are in March in Australia. And then I think America over the summer and Europe and stuff like that.

Are you looking forward to touring again?

Yeah, I am. It will be good now to get back out there for a while again and do another album. It's like going around in circles really.

Did Roses touch on everything you wanted to say musically and lyrically since it was your first album with the Cranberries in 10 years?

Yeah, but see I did No Baggage in 2009 and I did Are You Listening? in 2007 but I never really released No Baggage. I just did the reunion tour instead. So I was recording away all along. So it wasn't really as if I wasn't making records.

Everything else is good with you?

Yeah, everything is great and lovely. We're all excited because in six days the big guy [Santa Claus] is coming.

Putting up the Christmas tree?

Yeah, ‘cause the kids are 20, 14, 10 and 6—two boys and two girls.

Are they Cranberries fans?

Umm, I don't think they really know the music. Ah, they know one or two songs but it's not Cranberries, it's ‘Nannies. And they love me anyway even if I couldn't sing. I'm just mommy.

Conduct
Now it's too late
I can see that we should not be together
Now it's too late
We've come too far and we should not be together
 
Distructor, disctructor, not conducted
Can't you see where we went wrong?
 
Now it's too late
I can see that we should not be together
 
Take back my life
Take back my heart
I know I can hold it together
 
Give back my life
Give back my heart
I know we can hold us together
 
You liked it, you liked it
when we're not fighting, we're not fighting
Can't you see? We should get along.
 
It's not too late
I can see I know we can hold it together
 
When we get along
We're really strong
We're really strong
 
When we get along
We're really strong
We're really strong
 
Conduct yourself, conduct yourself
 
Tomorrow
 
I think that you're mad,
You spend a lot of time in your head
I know that you're mad,
You spend a lot of time in your head

If you could come away with me
You should come away with me
You should have some faith in me

Tomorrow could be too late
I wish I could change the date
Tomorrow could be too late
If only you had some faith

Too young, too proud, too foolish
Too young, too proud, too foolish

You ask a lot of questions
You have too much time on your hands
To hell with conclusions
Why should we make so many plans?

So you should come away with me
You should come away with me
You should have some faith in me

Tomorrow could be too late
I wish I could change the date
Tomorrow could be too late
If only you had some faith

Too young, too proud, too foolish
Too young, too proud, too foolish

Tomorrow could be so great
I wish I could change the date
Tomorrow could be so great
If only you had some faith

Fire & Soul

How to be unfaithful
How to be disgraceful

To lose yourself
To lose control
Fall off the fence
Fire and soul

To lose yourself
To lose control
Fall off the fence
Where is your fire and soul?

I'll wait for you forever
I'll wait for you forever
I'll take you to my grave

Now in the beginning
How the room was spinning

Hold on to me
Hold on to you
Hold on to us
Is what we'll do

I'll wait for you forever
I'll wait for you forever
I'll take you to my grave.. grave..

Ooh oooooh oh

Wait for you forever
I'll wait for you forever
I'll wait for you forever
I'll wait for you forever

To lose yourself
To lose control
Fall off the fence
Fire and soul

To lose yourself
To lose control
Fall off the fence
Where is your fire and soul?
 
Raining In My Heart

do do do doooo

I seen it all
I seen it all today
I cried a tear
I tried to turn away

But it's raining my heart
Every time we are apart
And the sun won't shine today
So I had to walk away

If I could fly
You know that I tried
If I could fly

Raining in my heart
It is rainig in my heart

So I must leave
To a place where I would go
You cannot come
I guess you'll never know

Still it's raining my heart
Every time we are apart
And the sun won't shine today
So I had to walk away

If I could fly
You know that I tried
If I could fly

Raining in my heart
It is rainig in my heart

Raining in my heart
Raining in my heart
 
Losing My Mind

Come in to bed
Switch off the lights
Close your eyes, sleep tonight
Think of all the things we did today
 
You touch me then, we fall apart
I lose control, the hardest part
I wish there it could be another way
 
Losing, I'm losing
I'm losing my mind
Ruining, I'm ruining
You're ruining my mind
 
You cut me deep like broken glass
I wonder when this time will pass
Or will I fall asunder everyday
 
Sitting here beside the fire
The flames they grow just like desire
Will I fall asunder everyday
 
Losing, I'm losing
I'm losing my mind
Ruining, I'm ruining
You're ruining my mind

Astral Projections

Can you see the colors in the air?
Can you see, am I hallucinating?
I woke up and I was walking down the stairs
I woke up but I’m still sleeping here
Is this lucid dreaming I am (dreaming)
I look down a thousand miles...
Miles...

Aaah
But I fall down
But I fall down
Aaah
But I fall down
But I fall down
Aaah

Can you see me I’m floating in the air?
Can you wake me I’m crying
I can see you, you’re lying next to me
I can’t wake you, I’m trying

Astral Projection can get me out of here
Astral Projection...

Aaah
But I fall down
But I fall down
Aaah
But I fall down
But I fall down
Aaah

I fly away away away
I fly away away away
I fly away away away
I fly away
So Good

Have you ever had an empty heart?
Have you ever had an empty heart?
Did you think it ever fall apart?

Have you ever had a lonely heart?
Have you ever had a lonely heart?
You didn’t think it ever fall apart

You, you make me feel so good
you make me feel so good, you make me feel so good
Just like I knew you would
Like I knew you would, like I knew you would

And if time will passes by
I know that it will try
I’ll wait for you
I’ll be there at the end
I’ll be there at the end
I’ll wait for you

You, you make me feel so good
you make me feel so good, you make me feel so good
Just like I knew you would
Like I knew you would, like I knew you would

Waiting for you
Waiting, waiting
Waiting for you

You, you make me feel so good
you make me feel so good, you make me feel so good
Just like I knew you would
Like I knew you would, like I knew you would
Roses

Life is no garden of roses
More like a thistle in time
Sailing past
Waiting for no one this time
Sailing fast
Waiting for no one this time

Now that you've killed me with your eyes,
Why did you push me away?
How will i make it without you?
How will i go on my way?

Everything feels cold in the winter
Everything feels cold ...

Life is a garden of roses
Roses just wither and die

Now that you've killed me with your eyes,
Why did you push me away?
How will i make it without you?
How will i go on my way?
Life is a garden of roses
Roses just wither and die

PARIS (AFP) - Tired of non-stop touring and hurting for inspiration, The Cranberries hung up their guitars in 2003. Nine years on, the Irish rockers say the chemistry came right back for their new album "Roses", to be released on Monday.

The quartet from Limerick shot to fame in the 1990s with hits like "Linger" and the politically-charged "Zombie" about the Northern Ireland conflict, lifted by the powerful voice of singer Dolores O'Riordan.

They sold 40 million records worldwide, becoming one of the flagship bands of the decade, but by 2003, two years after releasing their album "Wake Up and Smell the Coffee", they had hit a dead end.

"In 2003, my son was five, my daughter was two. They were very little and I brought them both on the road," O'Riordan told AFP. "There was a point when I just felt it wasn't fair on them."

"Also creatively, we were stuck in a rut. We just needed a break."

So they went their separate ways, O'Riordan heading to a far-flung corner of Canada where she gave birth to two more children, while the rest of the band stayed put in Ireland.

And that could have been the end of the story, were it not for Trinity College, Dublin, which invited the singer to become an honorary patron of its philosophical society in 2009.

Asked by the university to perform for the occasion, she looked up her old companions -- and the question of getting back together came up.

"It felt like yesterday. It was in fact six and a half years I hadn't seen them," O'Riordan said. "We went to the pub and over a beer Mike (Hogan, the bass player) said we should do it now because we're not getting any younger."

And that was how the tour that O'Riordan -- now 40, like Hogan -- was about to embark on for her second solo album was turned into a Cranberries comeback tour, playing 107 dates around the world.

"My shock was to see young people in the audience," guitarist Noel Hogan -- Mike's brother -- told AFP. "During our break, all these kids were discovering our music on the Internet and they never thought we were going to play live ever again."

Once the tour was over, the four decided to book into a studio -- but with "no contract, no management, no record company," he said. "We were not obliged to do it, we just did it because it was what we wanted to do."

"Roses", the album born of those recording sessions, is instantly recognisable as the work of The Cranberries, with soft, airy melodies backing up O'Riordan's distinctive voice.

"I think this breathing comes from the fact we have a chemistry, which came back immediately," said drummer Fergal Lawler. "We know where it should go when we play together, it just flows."

"There's no ego, so it's not like someone was trying to take over," agreed O'Riordan. "Having experienced working with hired musicians, you can hire the top ones, but you can't hire chemistry," said the singer, who wrote all the lyrics on the album.

On it she talks of her concerns as an adult and mother, of the recent loss of her father, and the need to make the most of the present.

The Cranberries kick off a world tour on March 15, starting in New Zealand.

O'Riordan -- who this time will set off without the children -- jokingly admits she is looking forward to a bit of a holiday.

"At home I'm a house-keeper and a mum. The kids are, like, 'What's for dinner? Where are my clothes?'. On tour it's, like: 'room-service'!"

Cranberries frontwoman Dolores O'Riordan says she's encouraged at the domination of British singer Adele in the last year.

"She's a voice, and she's classic," said the plain-spoken, Limerick-born O'Riordan, 40, in a Toronto hotel recently to promote the '90s-era pop-rock band's first album in 11 years, Roses, out Tuesday (Feb. 28)

"I like the fact that she doesn't peel them (clothes) off ... 'cause all the other broads are like, 'Here's me bum ... and whatever.' I kind of find of it aggravating 'cause I always think, 'Just 'cause we're women, why do we have to have our knockers hanging out?' Why can't we actually sing and get respected as good singers and songwriters without having our boobs and butt hanging out?'

O'Riordan, seated beside Cranberries guitarist Noel Hogan who is smiling as she speaks her mind, added it will be interesting to see how Adele's success plays out since, given she herself wrestled with The Cranberries' fame and its aftermath in the early-to-mid '90s .

"Every artist that's hugely successful, there's very often the backlash, and so I kind of wonder how it will go," said O'Riordan. "She's going to have to be a tough girl. She's going to have to be strong because she doesn't have a band. She's on her own and she's a young girl, so just fingers crossed that she'll be tough and she'll be able to deal with everything, 'cause I just have great admiration for her."

The Cranberries themselves took a major detour in 2003 when they went on hiatus after a disappointing 2001 album, Wake Up and Smell The Coffee, and writer's block.

O'Riordan released two solo albums, 2007's Are You Listening? and 2009's No Baggage, but as she was preparing to go out on her own around the second CD, she instead reunited with her old bandmates for tour.

"It was nice to be back with the lads because I've done so much with them, it felt like putting on your comfortable boots," said O'Riordan, who will play with the band on May 8 at Montreal's Metropolis and May 9 at Toronto's Sound Academy.

"And I had done Are You Listening? with a bunch of hired musicians but it didn't feel the same."

Turns out too that Hogan had been sending O'Riordan songs since 2005 so the creative juices were definitely flowing again.

In fact, a song he sent in 2011 particularly hit a nerve with O'Riordan, and it would turn into the title track from Roses, which was produced by the band's longtime collaborator Stephen Street.

"I went, 'Oh, my God, I love this,' " remembered O'Riordan. "And I just got really emotional because my father had cancer for six-and-a-half years and he was dying and I knew it and I knew as well that he wouldn't make the end of the year. I knew he wouldn't see 2012. So I remember I was really emotional and very sad but it just kind of came out like -- Bang! -- and it was just all thinking about my dad ... It was beautiful and it was my way of saying goodbye, I guess."

O'Riordan's father, Terence, died at the age of 74 on Nov. 25, 2011, in Limerick, but she had a "blessing in disguise" when he passed away at home surrounded by his wife of 50 years and their seven children.

"I was actually with him when he took his final breath," she said. "I was actually holding his hand so in a way there was great closure, and I felt really enlightened that the Lord had allowed me (that). And I kind of felt in a way that (my father) did that as well because he wanted to say, 'Go ahead now little one, don't worry about me, go ahead and do your thing.' "

O'Riordan loving life in Canada

Cranberries lead singer and Irish native Dolores O'Riordan says her full-time move to Canada three years ago has worked out well.

"It's been really good, it's so tranquil and that," O'Riordan told QMI Agency while in Toronto to promote Roses, the first Cranberries album in 11 years due Tuesday, Feb. 28. "It's very inspiring for writing."

Previously, O' Riordan's family -- six-year-old Dakota, 11-year-old Molly and 14-year-old Taylor plus 20-year-old Don. Jr, from Canadian-born husband Don Burton's previous relationship -- divided their time between Ireland and a home outside Peterborough, Ont., the latter that they bought in 1994.

The only downside to doing what are now essentially hometown shows in Toronto is the after-party.

"There's always casualties stories about my friend in the crowd, and who had too much whatever they were drinking," O'Riordan joked. "There's always a couple of casualties the next day. 'Cause Don is so social. He has tons of friends in Toronto. So there's always like hundreds of buddies. There's always a party in my bus. I remember the last time I was doing two in a row, and I think it was Massey Hall, and I remember I was going to go on my tour bus but I could see my bus shaking from outside. The whiskey was out as there were a load of friends like people who had come from up north and what not. And they were all on the bus."

TORONTO - As much as The Cranberries still get a thrill from seeing audiences erupt to the opening chords of "Zombie," its members knew they could only resurrect the band if they had some new songs to play.
"I've sang 'Zombie' so many times that I actually feel like a zombie," joked singer Dolores O'Riordan in a recent interview to promote "Roses," the band's first studio album in more than 10 years.
"We've been doing our old hits for so long, you feel like you're stuck in a loop or something, so with new material you feel very much alive."
It took a long breather from life on the road before the band felt ready to reunite from the hiatus they declared in 2003, which ended 13 years of relentless recording and touring.
The bandmates originally hooked up as teenagers in the early 1990s and quickly grew into international rock stars. Their debut, "Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?", included the hit "Linger, which helped start the quick transition from playing bars and clubs and opening for the likes of Duran Duran, Radiohead and Suede to headlining arenas and stadiums.
"We just said, 'Look, let's go off and do our own thing,'" recalled O'Riordan, while sitting alongside fellow Cranberries songwriter Noel Hogan.
In the ensuing years, O'Riordan, her husband and kids found an isolated home away from the media spotlight in a remote Ontario town, north of Toronto. The picturesque surroundings and time away from her whirlwind life with the globe-trotting band helped influence two solo albums, "Are You Listening?" in 2007 and "No Baggage" in 2009.
"It's very inspiring being up north because of the beauty of nature," she said.
"The seasons are so dramatic here — from the snow in the winter to the beauty of the autumn, the colours of the leaves falling — so I have a piano outside my window and sometimes I start off there with ideas, just using nature as a backdrop.
"It's good for the head."
But O'Riordan and Hogan did trade song ideas back and forth over the years and decided they were ready to get back together again in 2009. They first committed to a massive reunion tour — with 107 gigs around the world — and trotted out all their big hits again, including "Linger," "Dreams," "Salvation," "Free to Decide" and, of course, the hard-rocking "Zombie."
"As many times as we've played it, still, to see the reaction of the crowd every time when Dolores plays the intro, whether it's 20 people or 20,000, the whole place just goes mad," said Hogan.
"We've probably played it more than any other song at this point but still, that small intro starts and then it explodes and the whole place goes mad — it's a cool feeling."
But once the comeback tour was through, the band committed to hitting the studio and coming up with some new tunes to play live. It was last year that they got together in Toronto to start recording "Roses," and O'Riordan said it felt just like old times, before everyone got burned out.
"I think (in years past) we did start to feel like, 'Oh, (we just) have to do another album,' but with this one we didn't have that feeling, it was like we were doing it for ourselves, for a laugh, more like the early albums," she said.
"We weren't trying to write anything too catchy or anything like that and a lot of the tracks on the album are really quite different. You know, maybe there's one or two that would be (considered) catchy but the rest are very experimental and different from what we've done before. We were trying to challenge ourselves creatively speaking."
The album's lead single is "Tomorrow," a track that everyone agreed was the right song to reintroduce the world to the Cranberries, Hogan said.
"The record company really pushed for it but I think we all knew to be honest when we heard it in the studio," he said.
"It's got everything a single should have; a first single in particular."
Added O'Riordan: "Unlike 'Zombie,' it's not an anthem or anything, but it's just a nice and catchy positive song.... It seemed like a nice one to start with, particularly with the way the globe is, the whole recession and all that.
"It's nice to just kind of throw something positive out there."

Although there was a moment during the mid-1990s when the Cranberries were completely inescapable, the band had somewhat lost its way artistically — and, in turn, a large segment of its once millions-strong audience — by the turn of the millennium.

To the Irish quartet’s credit, it knew it was running out of steam and got out of the game while the getting was good. Save a short reunion tour in 2010, it hasn’t been heard from again.

Until now, anyway. This Tuesday sees the release of the Cranberries’ first new album in 11 years, Roses. A rather more mild-mannered affair than the arena-baiting rock records with which it closed the first chapter of its career a decade ago, it plays a bit like a grown-up version of the band’s highly likeable 1993 debut, Everybody Else is Doing It, So Why Can’t We? — which makes perfect sense, according to the Crans themselves, since it was recorded in much the same headspace.

“Nobody even knew we were up to this,” says singer Dolores O’Riordan, still pixie-ish at 40, whilst conducting a day of interviews at a Yorkville hotel with guitarist and co-songwriter Noel Hogan earlier this week. “We went in the studio just to see what would happen. There was no record company, so we weren’t under any obligation to do this . . . We thought ‘No one’s ever going to listen to this, so let’s have a right laugh.’”

O’Riordan — who’s married to a Canadian and lives part-time in southern Ontario — and Hogan candidly admit that they were dissatisfied with the last couple of Cranberries albums, conceding that burnout and the pressure to maintain the multimillion sales of Everybody Else (and its indelible hit “Linger”) and its mega-hit 1994 follow-up, No Need to Argue, eventually got the best of the band.

Making Roses, however, brought back memories of how it was back in the days before “Linger” and “Dreams” propelled the group out of its hometown of Limerick to sudden global notoriety. With no one watching, the band was able to tap into “the freedom within that we had lost,” says O’Riordan, and just be itself with no concessions to record-label boardrooms or radio formats. No one, in fact, was even sure they were making a record.

Hogan and O’Riordan had been knocking song ideas back and forth via email since 2005 with no particular intent of reviving the Cranberries, although O’Riordan laughs that the idea “was always subliminally there.” The chemistry on the 2010 tour proved too powerful to ignore, however, so it was decided to head into Toronto’s Metalworks studio a year ago “more just for fun than anything.”

“The vibe was so good,” recalls Hogan. “We were all getting along and there was a lot of laughing, so we started to think maybe there was an album there to be made.”

Turns out there was, and now the band is gearing up for a good 12 months of globetrotting in support of Roses, including a May 9 date at Sound Academy.

It feels right to do it, both band members agree, otherwise they wouldn’t be getting back on the treadmill again.

“It just got to the point where, creatively, we were not doing anything that great,” says O’Riordan, who released two solo albums during the hiatus despite playing mom to three children. “I had a kid and went back on tour and then had a kid and went back on tour. I just felt like I wanted to stay home with my kids. So in 2003, I was, like: ‘Yeah, I’m gonna stay home and just take a break.’ I said to the lads, ‘What do you think?’ And they were feeling the same way, that maybe we should take a break.

“I just wanted to experience life not being in the Cranberries. I wanted to switch off, get the hell away and be human. Not be in a band, not have any contractual obligations, not have anyone breathing down your neck waiting for the next flippin’ thing that you do. So it was a nice feeling.”

Adds Hogan: “It didn’t really feel like a big decision at the time. It felt like a weight off our shoulders more than anything. It wasn’t like ‘If we leave, is that the end?’ It was more like ‘We have to get the hell out of here.’

“People find it hard to understand why you would walk away from that. From the outside, you look like you have everything a band would want. But actually, we just wanted normality in our lives, to be able to go home and do what everybody else does.”

You didn't need a time machine in Auckland last night. The moment Dolores O'Riordan belted out the opening notes of Ode To My Family it was just like being back in 1996.

That's when my love for The Cranberries began. It was my first concert - I was 11 - and my dad took me to see them in the James Hay Theatre in Christchurch. All I remember from the momentous occasion was seeing the tiny O'Riordan jump around on stage in a black leather outfit and the crowd going crazy in the moshpit in front of us. It was the 90s, after all.

Tonight, the crowd didn't quite have the same atmosphere or energy - it happens when most of your fans have slowed down, got married and had children in the intervening years - but The Cranberries still put on a flawless show.

Appropriately framed by a velvet backdrop, they played hit after hit - Dreaming My Dreams, Linger, Miss You When You're Gone, I Can't Be With You, and, of course, Zombie - with the unbridled enthusiasm you would expect from a band just starting out.

There's always that fear, when you go to see a band this well-loved and well-known, that they will torture their audience by playing the old hits just once every five songs in an attempt to make people catch onto their new material.

But The Cranberries gave their fans exactly what they came for - the chance to reminisce about a simpler time, long before the global financial crisis, September 11 and man-made climate change. As my concert companion said to me: "I wish I'd worn my Skechers".

O'Riordan's vocal chords don't seem to have aged with the rest of us. She still has that distinctive, polarising, sharp Irish twang which is a hallmark of The Cranberries' style. It's her voice that makes the new stuff blend in almost seamlessly with the old. I have to confess I haven't heard their new album, Roses, but I would be keen to give it a go after hearing a couple of tracks performed live.

The concert finished up with Dreams - one of those songs you somehow know all the words to despite not having heard it in more than a decade. It was a decent two-hour-long set, but it finished at a respectable 10.20pm - everyone was still probably home in time to pay the babysitter and put the kids to bed.

If I did have a time machine at my disposal, I'm not sure I'd even use it to go back to 1995. But there's a chance I'd take it back to the start of the night, just to have another evening basking in the familiar guitar chords of a well-loved old favourite

According to some German members of the official community, Eventim.de – a German ticket company – announced the postponement of The Cranberries’ concert of June 25 to November 01, 2012 at the Max Schmeling Halle.
It seems people can keep their ticket or send it back to the company to get a refund.
Those who want to purchase tickets for the rescheduled date already can on their website.

This could mark the beginning of a series of cancellations regarding their European summer tour, starting on June 18 in London.
As you may all know now, the band lately cancelled a lot of shows as Dolores was not able to perform. We wish Dolores well and hope things are going to get better shortly.
Note that no official statement was made on the side of the band.

In the meantime, we’ll try to get you informed of any change in their upcoming legs of the Roses Tour.

On a lighter note, a new concert in Mí¼nchen, Germany (2012.12.02) was added along with the rescheduled Berlin show!

While fans were waiting for official announcements regarding the cancelled US shows, the Limerick Leader just published an interview of Dolores’ mother – Eileen O’Riordan – which gives us a bit of answers.


As a matter of fact, it seems that Dolores needs a break from her “hectic touring schedule”.

Also, as mentioned before, a concert due to take place this June in Germany was postponed two days ago, raising questions regarding the upcoming leg of the Roses Tour in Europe. The Limerick Leader’s interview confirms what we suspected as it reveals that Dolores is considering a possible cancellation.

THE Cranberries lead singer, Dolores O’Riordan, has been advised by her mother to take time out from her hectic touring schedule.

The Limerick band have cancelled the final two concerts of their North American tour.

Philadelphia’s Electric Factory said the rock group had pulled Saturday’s show “due to a family emergency”.

However, according to Dolores’s mother Eileen, the situation isn’t serious and her daughter has decided to take time off from her busy touring schedule.

“I advised her because I know her and I think she was stressed out. The children are off now for the summer and she would be working,” Eileen told the Leader this week.

“Things are very hectic and she is as well off to take a break not to let it go too far,” she added.

Dolores, who was raised in Ballybricken and is now based in Toronto, had been touring with the band in recent months.

“She is off for a week or two but that is no good,” said her mother.

“She might be home in a couple of weeks depending on how she is or I will go out to her when they [the children] get the holidays.

“There is nothing serious. I’m not too sure if she has cancelled the European Tour depending on what the doctor says to her,” she added.

Dolores was last home in Ireland in February of this year. She is married to former manager of Duran Duran, Canadian Don Burton, and has four children.

Roses, the sixth studio album by The Cranberries was released worldwide in February of this year.

Italian fans found out today that tickets for the concerts in Piazzola sul Brenta and Milano were not on sale anymore whereas everyone states that these shows were far from being sold out.


Is this another clue pointing to a possible cancellation of the whole/part of the European Summer Tour?
What is certain is that we should know more about the Italians gigs very soon.

It is unclear whether concerts will be maintained, postponed (like the Berlin one) or cancelled on this leg of the Roses Tour.

The Cranberries have postponed their summer European dates originally slated to start in London on June 18th. The rescheduled dates are now set to begin on October 2nd at London’s HMV Hammersmith Apollo and are all listed below. Tickets from the original dates will be honored for the rescheduled performances or refunds can be obtained from point of purchase if required.
Unfortunately some shows and festival appearances have had to be cancelled. The performances that are not going to take place are as follows:
June 20th Paris, Grand Rex
June 22nd Ruoms, Aluna Festival
June 29th Zagreb, InMusic Festival
July 7th Cognac Blues Festival
The band’s lead singer, Dolores O’Riordan stated “For personal reasons I would prefer to keep private, it turns out that this is not a good time for me to be on the road this Summer. I apologize to the fans and promise that the Cranberries will be at our best for the rescheduled shows.”
The tour is in support of the band’s first album in over a decade, Roses, released this Spring on Cooking Vinyl Records. Previous dates on the Roses tour have been met with overwhelming critical acclaim. Reviewing the first of two sold out shows at Terminal 5 in New York City this month, The House List stated “There was a special feeling of collective amazement and disbelief as the band performed, sounding as polished and tight as they had in 1995.” About the album, The Daily Mail stated in their 4 star review, “Returning after ten years, the Irish quartet sound refreshed. Waiting In Walthamstow is a ballad worthy of The Kinks.”

2/10 London, England HMV — Hammersmith Apollo * rescheduled from 18/6
4/10 Barcelona, Spain — Palau Sant Jordi Club * rescheduled from 9/7

Sad day for the Cranberries fan community: both the group and Dolores’ fan community sites have been closed today.

Last month, a spokeperson from the band team informed fans that both communities would close in June, as the band decided to only use their Facebook page for communication with/between fans. In the past, the Cranberries Facebook page was mainly used to announce tour dates and relay some information posted on media and fan web sites.

Few weeks earlier, Noel Hogan also close his Twitter account. Hogan was the only band member to interact with fans on Internet and to pass on some useful information about the band performances and reactions.

Let’s hope that the band will use their Facebook account more frequently to inform and interact with fans when they get back to work in October.

Critica de Londres

Citar
Dolores O’Riordan opens tonight’s performance with an apology: “I’m sorry it took us so long to get here”. The diminutive singer, whose hair has been cropped short and dyed from its native auburn a shocking ash blonde, is not referring to the fairly respectable starting time of 9pm on a Tuesday.

This gig, the whole European tour, in fact, was originally scheduled for June and July. But it was cancelled at last minute, due to unspecified personal reasons. “I wasn’t very well,” explains O’Riordan. “And I lost my father a year ago. So thanks very much for waiting.”

The band kicks off with “Conduct” from their new album, Roses. It is a low-key start, the familiar lilt of O’Riordan’s honey rich voice not quite hitting the heights it used to. But she jiggles and gyrates up and down the stage enthusiastically and the crowd wakes up when the strains of “Linger” ring out and the much-loved banshee wailing begins. The initial low ebb swells up as the crowd mouths every word: “You know I’m such a fool for you. You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha ha.” O’Riordan gives up trying to sing the chorus and hands the mic over to the audience.

With No Doubt and Garbage, The Cranberries are among a slew of popular nineties bands to have reformed after many years of hiatus. Their latest album, released in early 2012, has received mixed reviews. New single “Tomorrow” takes an upbeat, electronic direction which is pleasing; and “Losing My Mind”, set to a thumping percussive heartbeat reminiscent of early Radiohead, is another winner. But the crowd clamours for the old tunes- not many of which are forthcoming.

A further hint at O’Riordan’s state of health comes when she disappears from view during “I Can’t Be With You”. Her bewildered-looking bandmates peer helplessly into the wings and strum the equivalent of hold music for a good ten minutes. When O’Riordan re-emerges she has swapped her jeans and cardi for a black puffball tutu which she looks incredible in. But the break feels unscheduled and takes a lot longer than a normal costume change. “It’s been four months, so I’m taking it easy,” she explains. “The old anatomy’s not what it used to be.”

They troop on, playing “Zombie” and “Salvation”, encoring with “No Need To Argue”. But tonight, in its languorousness, feels like the end of an exhaustive tour, not the beginning of one.

Earlier this year, Noel said that they had already started to write new songs for the next album.

Dolores briefly talked about the death of her father and her bereavement in a French article from Brest’s Tíélíégramme newspaper. 

“I experienced a personal tragedy that affected me a lot. The last months of my father’s were very stressful. It took me many months before I could recover from his death. I needed to stay with my family and my children. I feel better today, I can now look at his picture. I now realize that I have to live without him…”, told Dolores.

She later told that she can’t sing ‘Ode to My Family’ for now, because it makes her think of her father. “I hope to be able to sing it back one day, but for now, it’s too soon…”.

According to Noel’s latest interview for UAudio.com, the band wants to take its time when it comes to recording another album.

“I’m not saying we want to spend another ten years writing, but we definitely don’t want to rush it. I’d rather not do that again and just take our time. Quality over quantity, you know? If it means it does take a bit longer than we should, I don’t think it’s a bad thing if you have a great result from it,” said Noel.

Noel is currently writing new songs for the band. This is what he said about it: “I started writing again around the beginning of this year. I actually find it easier to write when I’m traveling. On your days off you’re sitting around a hotel room anyway so it gives you something to do. I started sending stuff to Dolores around January and I’ve been writing bits and pieces.”

Noel also plans to record another Mono Band album. “There are some songs I feel aren’t really the Cranberries’ sound, so I decided I’m going to try and maybe do another Mono Band album at the same time. I’m going to try and do both, but I want to take my time doing it,” said Noel.

t looks like some of the local labels distributing The Cranberries’ new album didn’t give up on a promotion of “Roses” in some regions. Ten months after the album release, “Fire & Soul” becomes the third promo single in Russia.

According to TopHitRu.com (a web site that officially provides new promo singles for Russian radio stations and aggregates an information about the rotation of every single on Russian radios), “Fire & Soul” was made available for broadcasting on Russian radio stations on December 5, 2012. Since then it was played on 32 stations (for example, “Tomorow” was played on 44 stations). Full statistics of the track’s rotation is available here.

Two previous promo singles from “Roses” released in Russia (“Tomorrow” and “Show Me”) were aimed for the rock radio stations, but never got much attention. Unlike them, “Fire & Soul” is aimed for the radios playing in CHR format (Contemporary Hit Radio) which means that, maybe, the local distributor is trying to showcase a different side of The Cranberries’ talent.

“Roses” is distributed by Soyuz Music in Russia. The album peaked at #24 on the Russian charts.

“Fire & Soul” joins other songs from “Roses” released as promo singles in different regions. Last spring “Raining In My Heart” was chosen as the second single in Italy and Ireland (and maybe other countries, too?) and “Waiting In Walthamstow” was released as promo single in the United Kingdom last summer. “Show Me” also got some airplay in the United States, Greece, Poland and Russia (and other countries, too?) And, of course, “Tomorrow” was the first official single released in many countries all over the world.

If you’ve heard The Cranberries’ songs from “Roses” in your country, let us know in the comments!

Time is actually ticking out!! Legendary Windmill Lane Studios in Dublin has issued an appeal to musicians who have worked there to collect their master tapes – amongst them some of The Cranberries recordings – or else they’ll be destroyed.


Some of the old tapes, including work by The Cranberries, on display at Dublin’s Windmill Lane Studios. (rte.ie)
“We’re appealing to any artists who’ve worked here using two-inch multitrack tapes to come in and reclaim them because we’re in the process of disposing of these tapes,” Ian Brady of Pulse told RTí‰ Ten. Windmill is now owned by Pulse Recording College.

The Cranberries recorded Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We?, To The Faithful Departed, Wake Up and Smell The Coffee and part of Bury The Hatchet at Windmill Lane studios.

Many of the tapes are either demos, master tape back-ups or discarded takes. Windmill Lane Studios will start to destroy the unclaimed tapes on May 7th.

Let’s hope that the band sees this and reclaims their tapes to save them for posterity! Wouldn’t it be nice to have some alternate takes or unreleased tracks just in time to celebrate Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We? 20th anniversary this year?

The Cranberries’s debut album is turning 20 this week-end… and sounds as fresh as if it was recorded yesterday!


Released on March 1st 1993 in Europe and March 2nd in North America, Everybody Else Is Doing  It, So Why Can’t We? was recorded at the mythical Windmill Lane Studios in Dublin, Ireland. Last Thursday, we learned that the mater tapes of this album, which could include possible outtakes and unreleased tracks, are facing destruction, as Windmill Lane Studios appealed to musicians who have worked there to collect them before next May or else they’ll be destroyed.

The Cranberries began the recording of their first album in January 1992 with Pearse Gilmore, who previously worked with them on their Xeric label material. However, the band was not happy with the results and the work was scrapped. “Unhappy with the results – Gilmore had cluttered the mixes with dance beats and industrial-style guitar – and barely on speaking term with each other, the band scrapped the tracks and fired Gilmore” (Rolling Stone Magazine, March 23, 1995, p. 60.). After hiring a new manager, the band started working again on the album, this time with producer Stephen Street.

Everybody Else… peaked at #18 on the Billboard 200 and stayed on this chart for 130 weeks (more than 2 years!!). After a rough start n the UK, the album reached #1 of Album Charts  and stayed in chart for 86 weeks. The album sold almost 8 millions copies worldwide, making it the second best selling Cranberries album after No Need To Argue. The album was reissued in 2002 with its singles’ b-sides as bonus tracks.

The Cranberries’ master tapes recorded at the Windmill Lane Studios might be Universal and Island’s record property, as the record label probably paid for the recording sessions back then.

Tony Perrey from Windmill Lane Studios was interviewed today on RTE radio and explained that in many cases, records labels have the rights on these master tapes. No words on the Cranberries in this interview though…

La banda europea “The Cranberries” canceló su participación dentro de las actividades del Festival Cultural Zacatecas 2013.

Esto lo dieron a conocer en rueda de prensa las autoridades del Instituto Zacatecano de Cultura “Ramón López Velarde”, encabezado por su director general, Gustavo Salinas íñiguez.

La probable causa serí­a el estado de salud de su vocalista, Dolores O’Riordan, lo que ha ocasionado que la gira de la banda pueda detenerse en gran parte.

Los organizadores del festival aún no confirman cual será el espectáculo que suplirá a esta banda, la cual se iba a presentar el lunes 25 de marzo a las 20.30 horas en la Plaza de Armas de la capital.

Rumors  have been spreading around about Dolores health for a few days now, since Zacatecas Festival canceled the Cranberries gig, originally scheduled for March 25th. 

Our fan site has chosen not to contribute to the rumors and not to put a name on whatever possible reason the gig was canceled.  Remember that the band has not announced anything about this, so we can only presume that these are speculations. We would also like to point out that some statements by the Zacatecas representatives include some inaccurate information about Dolores’ previous health condition. The only known health problem that Dolores suffered from over the last few years was some vocal cord nodules. The current rumor could be a simple misunderstanding.

Whether or not Dolores is afflicted by a health problem, we feel that she should be the one announcing it publicly if she wants to, not some concert promoter. We feel that the last days’ statements were inappropriate.

According to a very intriguing promo CD that has surfaced on eBay, The Cranberries’ song Raining In My Heart might have a chance to be featured on some TV shows or movies.

The promo CD is called “Music Alternatives: January 2013″ and it features songs from various artists including The Cranberries’ promo single Raining In My Heart. The CD is released by Music Alternatives, and according to the company’s web site, it specializes in “placing their artists’ music in film, television, commercials, video games, trailers, soundtracks and special markets.”

esterday a new bootleg of The Cranberries surfaced on the internet. It is almost 11-year old as it was recorded live in concert on June 1st, 2002 in Miami during the Wake Up And Smell The Coffee World Tour ’02.
We usually don’t write any news, as you may have noticed, when a new bootleg comes out and we simply add it to our bootography database (which is small for now but is bound to grow over the coming months and years).

This new old recording is an exception as it is quite special and deserves a few explanations.
Why ?
Because we usually know 2 ways of recording a concert: Professional made by professional and authorized people and Audience made in most of the case by fans in the crowd and unauthorized.

The bootleg that surfaced yesterday belongs to a third category as it is an IEM Feed source and this is the first ever IEM recording of The Cranberries known to date for now. Many of us have just no idea what an IEM Feed is and what it means. IEM is for In-Ear-Monitors. To be clearer and simple it is the headphones that all musicians have on stage nowadays. And all the musicians have their own mix inside, in example a bass player will hear the bass louder than the other instruments etc…
Datfly (the uploader -and maybe taper?- of this new bootleg on dimeadozen) tells us the recording features very heavy Dolores O’Riordan vocals so there are good chances the IEM Feed recorded here is Dolores’ one. So we have a professional recording made by a non-professional and probably non-authorized person.

The result is kinda unique and everyone will have its own opinion on the quality and interest of the thing. It’s up to you to listen. Hear the accuracy of Dolores singings like rarely heard before. Anyway what is for sure, The Cranberries Fans Community definitely have a collector piece !

A year before the release of their first album in 10 years, The Cranberries made good profits through their own company, Curtain Call Ltd.


According to the Irish Times, the band’s company recorded well-deserved profits of €71,973 in 2011 and €248,183 a year before, mainly with their Reunion Tour, while music sales continues to decline in the entertainment industry for a decade or so.

Each of the band’s four members has a 25 per cent stake in Curtain Call.

With the release of Roses in 2012, followed by short tours in Asia and North America and an extended one in Europe, 2012 must have been a good year for the band, financial-wise.

There is a really old one from June 1st 1991 taken in Cork Ireland at the Sir Henry’s which originally appeared online on the Dailyedge.ie ‘s website inside an article about the legendary venue and its memorabilia. It is unclear yet if this show is one of the last under the name The Cranberry Saw Us or one of the first (maybe the first) under the name The Cranberry’s. That’s History. Hope we’ll have more information one day.

he Cranberries’ vocalist Dolores O’Riordan and guitarist Noel Hogan have signed a publishing partnership with Warner/Chappell Music UK, covering their share of the Irish rock band’s body of work from 1993-2004.

WCM will administer O’Riordan and Hogan’s worldwide rights to the band’s catalogue, including the UK No.1 record Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We? (1993), Top 10 albums No Need To Argue (1994), To The Faithful Departed (1996) and Bury The Hatchet (1999), as well as the critically acclaimed Wake Up And Smell The Coffee (2003).

With album sales in excess of 40 million, the band have also enjoyed international success with tracks like Linger, Zombie, Ode to My Family and Dreams. During a 25-year tenure, they’ve picked up a number of accolades including an MTV EMA Best Song award for Zombie and a Juno Award for International Album Of The Year for No Need To Argue.

Richard Manners, managing director, Warner/Chappell UK said: “I am delighted Warner/Chappell will provide a home for the works of Dolores and Noel, and I am especially happy to be reunited with their amazing music having signed the band’s original publishing deal at the start of their career.

"This is a distinctive catalogue, melodically and lyrically, and their huge international success has given it a truly global reach. They continue to be popular and highly respected musicians today, and we look forward to working with them and their management team to create new opportunities for their outstanding compositions and build on their already impressive career.”

P.J. O’Riordan, manager for Dolores, commented: “We are really looking forward to collaborating with Warner/Chappell who have assembled an incredible team who share our values, passion and creativity for the band’s past works. I believe this will be a mutually successful and exciting journey for both parties.”

Sort of breaking news today as several articles in the medias mention The Cranberries as playing a private concert in the new season of the TV show The Bachelorette. USA version. Season 11 premieres next May 18th on ABC.

Travelling across the Atlantic to Ireland, the dates are filled with explosive revelations and drama, as the group journeys to Dublin and a stop at the magnificent Christ Church Cathedral. The Bachelorette and one lucky man are treated to a private concert by the popular rock group The Cranberries. Then their Irish excursion moves on to Killarney with a romantic trip to the Blarney Castle to kiss the Blarney Stone.
It looks like all the episodes are now recorded so if true The Cranberries reformed at least for one day. Hope we can have more details soon as it would be the first show of the band in about 2 years and a half.
This is not the first time The Cranberries or Dolores solo appear on TV/Movies (Charmed, Click…) and it is always nice to see them in projects like this.

Strange as it sounds now but there was a time when The Cranberries were easily the most remarkable young band in Ireland having emerged, quite literally, from out of nowhere. Theirs is of course a well-worn and hoary old story, albeit one pock-marked with crudely-formed testimonials and urban myths. And this is something I’ll return to in a future post.

One of the early driving forces behind the band was, I think, Pearse Gilmore who, among other things, fronted his own group, Private World, and also ran Xeric, a studio and rehearsal complex located on Edward Street in Limerick city. A curious sampler album, ‘The Reindeer Age’, released in early 1990, showcased a mixed bag of Limerick bands, all of them captured on tape in Xeric by Gilmore. The likes of They Do It With Mirrors, Tuesday Blue, Toucandance, The Hitchers and Private World themselves were notables among the large cast. Something was clearly afoot.

The Cranberries didn’t feature on ‘The Reindeer Age’ and yet, within six months, had over-taken their peers on every level.I was on a watching brief at this time :- apart from [over] enthusing about them in a variety of different outlets, I was also scouting them for Setanta Records. Our attention had been drawn the previous year to a slipshod demo that featured an early version of ‘Linger’ and that had been circulated under the name The Cranberry Saw Us.  Indeed there was a point when Keith Cullen at Setanta felt he’d finally snared them. In the end, after a year-long harry-and-chase, the band signed with Island Records instead.

Myself and another young writer, Jim Carroll, reviewed them frequently and with no little zest around this time, often travelling together to shows in Limerick. The fact that The Cranberries were from outside of Dublin – well protected from the scene that celebrated itself– only made them more alluring. By the summer of 1991, a handful of emerging bands based in Ireland’s regions were cutting ferocious shapes. And the strength of that scene was reflected in the line-up at that year’s Cork Rock event in Sir Henry’s, which featured The Frank And Walters, The Sultans of Ping, Therapy, Toasted Heretic and The I.R.S. among others. It was The Cranberries, who also played, who went on to dominate them all.

I first met them for an early Hot Press interview one warm Saturday afternoon in Limerick and I couldn’t get over how naí¯ve they were. They told me that they had very few, if any influences, didn’t listen to many records and that their songs ‘just came out’. Noel Hogan was gilding the lily, without question, but Dolores was genuinely clueless.

Live they were fragile and very, very basic. Gilmore had given them a stylish spit-and-polish in studio, something they struggled to replicate when they played live. Noel and Mike were struggling with their instruments [guitar and bass respectively] and the drummer, Fergal Lawlor, was the band’s pivot. But even then it was Dolores who dominated. In a flicked page-boy cut, standard indie duds and fresh Doc Marten boots, she cut a familiar but magnetic presence :- after gigs she’d routinely change into a multi-coloured tracksuit and couldn’t really give a flying one.

This review, for Melody Maker magazine, is an earnest and awkward attempt to capture the band’s charm and their incredible promise, while alluding also to their gormlessness.I was struggling with my craft as manfully as The Cranberries were struggling with their instruments, resorting to An Emotional Fish for my sign-off.

The show in question took place in the confined spaces of the College Bar in University College Cork in October, 1991, to a small but very keen audience. Pearse Gilmore – a tall, lean and most distinctive man – was very prominent around the venue on the night, and especially around the sound-desk. The venue was a well-known sound-trap and quality audio there was often a difficult ask. Not that it mattered.

The Cranberries, in their own mild way, blew the place asunder.

This review appeared originally in Melody Maker magazine on October 19th, 1991. I’ve made some minor edits to the original copy.

The Cranberries are probably too tender for all of this but, right now, they have all of our hopes to weigh them down. They’re charming little innocents, so untouched, so perfect, so astoundingly pure. They’ve come from a city that isn’t Dublin, from a county where politics are conservative and where Gaelic games and rugby offer some small social hope. They think small, embarrassed by what they’ve suddenly become. By what we’ve painted them up to be.

To singer Dolores, pop songs have no truck with video and make-up, nothing to do with fanciful clothes. She’s stopped reading her band’s press because she doesn’t need us to tell her who she is. And when she stands still, saying little, in place like this, it’s because she’s unsure about all of the fuss. The Cranberries, understand, are charmingly naí¯ve ;- its their single greatest attribute. They have no idea how good they are, of how important they might yet become.

The Cranberries had never heard of The Sundays or The Throwing Muses nine months ago – their songs just happened, ‘they just came out’, and we believe that. They’re too frail to be contrived. And while lines like ‘I was just 16 years old when I married you, and now its just a stupid mess, I don’t know what to do’ seem trite, then you should understand that Dolores is eighteen years old and coming from what is essentially a very narrow rural tradition. And she writes nothing like The Saw Doctors.

Tonight is all very full ; lots of songs, gorgeous songs. ‘Put Me Down’ with its spine-shrill, jangle-and-hum, ‘Linger’ with its spellbound simplicity, ‘Dreams’ with its curious drum thud. Dolores even plays some acoustic guitar but it just looks all wrong, all too cumbersome for her. It still sounds very fine, of course, and ‘Reason’ and ‘Pathetic Senses’ become the huge, simmering pop songs that Johnny Marr, for instance, would collect and play. ‘Liar’ owes to Pixies’ ‘Is She Weird’ but we’re not here to look for clues.

We’re here to love a band wholly. To hug and kiss. Beauty does what beauty does best. Be beautiful.

As previously mentioned in our article, media recently revealed that The Cranberries would appear on a US TV show “Bachelorette” 2015.

Date of broadcast was unknown until then, though Inquisitr.com reported yesterday that the dates’ trip to Ireland including a private Cranberries concerts would be part of Week 6 episode of the season, airing on Monday 22nd at 8:00pm on ABC.

For those who do not live in the US, we will try to find a link for fans to watch it wherever they are in the world.

Yesterday and totally out of the blue appeared on the internet a brand new 27 minutes audio interview of The Cranberries minus Dolores. The weekly podcast is called “Coffee with a sign painter” and usually takes place in Starr Studios in Texas but this time it was recorded in Limerick Ireland. The exact recording date is not yet known but it sure is quite recent, “a few days ago” according to Noel Hogan’s Tumblr account. Host Sean Starr talks with Noel, Mike and Fergal about The Cranberries, the influence of Morrissey and The Smiths, the music industry, Limerick, family, life in the 80’s, not jamming together for fun on their time off, Sign Painting and the upcoming screening of the film Sign Painters at the Elemental Arts Festival in Limerick this coming September.

2015.07.14 starrstudiostx1

But the most important thing for any fans concerns the future plans / music of the band and it comes from Noel around minute 23:00 :

I think if we decided we were gonna do it like we did a few years ago around 2009, when we went back again you know, when we get back into it, it suddenly consumes everything again. You’re doing it, you’re away all the time and you are writing and you’re in the studio and we completely focus on that then when we get back into it.
So if it’s something we do again, and I’m sure we probably will, we’ll lead it at a time when we can all focus on that and not have kind of other things going on at the same time, because as I say, it’s such a big thing when we take off that you have to kind of commit 3 years of your life really to the thing. Cause sometimes you kinda tour short, you don’t go to one territory and next you get these fans that are seriously pissed off with you so you kinda have to keep everybody happy, that’s why it takes so long then.
So, will there be new music of The Cranberries ? Will there be concerts again ? No one can really tell for now but at least it doesn’t look impossible and that’s pretty good news !

THE Cranberries are return to the stage this summer for a series of shows, the band has confirmed.

The Limerick group, who have not performed live in several years, have announced details of one of a “few shows” planned for 2016.

Guitarist and songwriter Noel Hogan made the announcement on Twitter that the band would play at the Festi’neuch festival in Neuchatel, Switzerland on June 9, sharing a bill with Skunk Anansie.

The Limerick man tweeted: “This is one of a few shows planned for this summer. More Cranberries dates coming soon.”

The prospect of the group playing a gig in their native Limerick will raise excitement levels, with the 2,000 capacity King John’s Castle - soon to play host to The Coronas –appearing to be a natural fit for The Cranberries, who have not played in the city since a short performance at the 2010 Special Olympic Ireland Games opening ceremony.

Legal proceedings between Hogan and singer Dolores O'Riordan – who herself appeared in court recently in alleged air rage charges – were struck out last year.

The matter, which neither Cranberries star ever publicly commented on, was adjourned a number of times when it came before the court, before the motions were made to strike it out in July.

The pair, along with fellow members Mike Hogan and Fergal Lawler, resurrected The Cranberries in 2009 after almost seven years “on hiatus”.

They took new album Roses, their first since 2001’s Wake Up and Smell the Coffee, on a 107 date world tour, yet did not play in Ireland and have likewise not played since the tour finished.

In April last year, it was announced that the lucrative Cranberries’ back catalogue – belonging to Hogan and O’Riordan – was to move to the Warner/Chappell Music UK publishing group.

The duo signed a publishing partnership with the UK arm of Warner’s global music publishing company, home to Paolo Nutini, London Grammar, Muse and more.

The deal covers a more than 10-year body of work that includes mega-selling albums Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We? and No Need To Argue.

The agreement covers the period between 1993-2004 – the Cranberries’ most fruitful, with five multi-million selling albums - up to 40 million in sales - and includes the publishing rights to monster hits such as Linger, Zombie and Dreams.

During an interview last year, Mr Hogan explained that the band had more recently been involved in “other smaller projects” in their home city and had been spending time with family, adding that “nothing would ever be on the scale of The Cranberries, that is a bit of a monster in itself, so to have that once in your life, you are lucky”.

Asked if the band were likely to release more music and tour again, he said: “If we decided we were going to do it like we did a few years ago - around 2009 - when we get back into it, it (would) suddenly consume everything again. You are doing it, you are away all the time and writing and in the studio, completely focussing on that.

“So if it is something we do again, and I am sure we probably will, then we will need it at a time when we can all focus on that and not have other things going on, because it is such a big thing when we take off - you have to commit three years of your life to the thing.”

The Cranberries have just been announced to play La Foire aux Vins d’Alsace on August 12, 2016.
This festival is located in the East of France in the city of Colmar.

The band already played there in August 2010 sharing the bill with a band named Gotan Project. It was the last show in Europe in 2010 and there was a big power failure during The Cranberries set. Fans still remember this particular show as the band had to skip a lot of songs to end the show on time when the power returned. Let’s hope this time fate will be better !

The song title(s) is (are) not yet known but The Cranberries are on the list of the artists appearing in the video game “Rock Band 4” for PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo and others.

Rock Band 4 cover

For those who have no idea what this game is all about, it allows up to four players to simulate the performance of popular rock songs by playing with controllers modeled after musical instruments. Players can play the lead guitar, bass guitar and drums parts to songs with instrument controllers as well as sing through a USB microphone.

Here is the list of the artists being part of the next March DLC(*) as announced by developer Harmonix:

5 Seconds of Summer
Carrie Underwood
The Cranberries
Fall Out Boy
Luke Bryan
Neon Trees
One Direction
Sam Hunt
If there is only one song of The Cranberries in Rock Band 4 it will surely be “Zombie”.
If more than one so guess the songs… Any idea?

According to Bastián a longtime gamer and Cranberries fan (see his message below) the band already appeared in the video games “Rockband Blitz” (Linger) and “Singstar” (Linger, Zombie, Stars).
“Zombie” might be in “Rocksmith” as well.

(*) DLC is a sort of downloadable update, a not-free update, you have to pay more money to play those artists as they are not part of the main collection (Rock Band 4 was released in October 2015).

Last few days Noel has been posting new photos on The Cranberries’ new Instagram page. These photos feature Noel, Mike and Ferg in some large spaces with lots of musical instruments, headphones and microphones… as if the boys were recording something! Another photo shows a music sheet of Zombie. Some fans were speculating that these photos were part of a recording session.

And today we have another clue! A new photo on The Cranberries’ Instagram has a geotagging saying that it was taken at the Irish Chamber Orchestra Studio in Limerick! And Noel added the words: “One last take….” on his Twitter page.

As some fans may remember, on February 24th, Dolores told in the interview after the court sentencing that she’s about to release two records, one with D.A.R.K. and the other with… The Chamber Orchestra!

So it seems like the pieces of the puzzle are beginning to fall into place: The Cranberries are indeed recording (or rehearsing?) something at the Irish Chamber Orchestra Studio, and so far it looks like something acoustic (lots of acoustic guitars and Fergal’s famous Empty drums on photos). So what is it? An acoustic best of album with orchestrated arrangements? Or just a rehearsal at fancy studio… but why so many microphones? Time will tell!

Anyway, these are very exciting news for The Cranberries fans, and we can’t wait to hear what are you thinking about this in our comments section!

THE Cranberries are gearing up to make a return to the stage for the first time in nearly four years.

The Limerick group will play a show in Lublin in Poland this week, their first time performing live together since late 2012.

In recent weeks the Cranberries have been rehearsing in the Irish Chamber Orchestra’s building in UL, where they were captured in full flow by local photographer Ken Coleman, a digital media artist who has worked with a number of bands.

Ken, who got to know songwriter and guitarist Noel Hogan through the Pigtown Fling project which formed a central part of City of Culture in 2014, took a stylised poster image and snippet of promo video of the group for the upcoming tour, an initial 10 dates the Cranberries will play before the end of September in Europe and the US.

The UL interactive media graduate, 35, from Lisnagry, said the four bandmates were “relaxed and happy” in each other’s company when he photographed them, also capturing them on video, which Noel has since released online.

“I got a couple of shots of them and the video and you can see at the very end that they are having a good chat, they were laughing and joking amongst themselves,” he said.

“Noel asked me if I would be interested in doing a couple of shots of the lads, because they were trying to get together for the tour.

“They are all in different places at different times, so we had a very small window of opportunity to get it done on a Sunday evening.

“We knocked it out in about an hour and a half; green screen, live video, and the stills from that last practice before they packed up.

“There was no real brief, I just went at it as I usually do, my own kind of style, and they were happy with the first draft I gave them.”

Ken has collaborated with local bands on similar projects and is also working with an American death metal band, but said it was a “nice step up” to work with an act of the profile of the Cranberries, who have sold an estimated 40 million albums worldwide.

"What is exciting is the international reaction - the video had 300,000 hits in a day, the Instagram had 48,000 likes,” he said.

“For my own personal thing and from a career point of view, it is good, because I have been working on this now professionally for ten years, pretty much to the month,” added Ken who is gearing up to unveil a new digital art piece as the curator’s choice for June in the Hunt Museum

Noel has been drip feeding pictures through the band’s Instagram, with the hint emerging that they might be recording new music.

Their last album, Roses, was released in 2012 and the Cranberries took it on a huge world tour.

However, they did not play in Limerick, and have only done so once in almost 20 years, performing three songs at the Special Olympics opening ceremony in Thomond Park in 2010. Efforts are ongoing, the Leader understands, to try and rectify that and to bring the quartet home for a show, but nothing has been finalised.

While they were rehearsing at the ICO building, a number of fans turned up and were warmly received by the group, who signed autographs and posed for pictures.

THE CRANBERRIES ARE/WERE RECORDING AN ALBUM WITH THE IRISH CHAMBER ORCHESTRA.

DOLORES: (…) at the time I felt like it (Roses) was going to be the last album, but the years go by, things happen in your life and you end up together.
A cranberries ‘greatest hits’ album is due to be recorded soon with the Irish Chamber Orchestra and that project co-exists with the debut album by D.A.R.K.
Dolores and the boys probably had not recorded anything when this interview was done, and to this day it is unclear whether the lads totally finished all their tracks/parts nor if Dolores even started recording hers.

Unfortunately we have to cancel tonight's performance at the Fete du Bruit in Landerneau, France due to Dolores having a very painful back problem caused by a bulging disc.

We arrived at the venue here today for the show but unfortunately Dolores is simply not well enough and in too much pain to perform.

She managed to do last nights show in Colmar but after the performance she was in great pain, which did not improve and forced today's cancellations.

Sincere apologies to all those who came to see us tonight.

We hope to come back and see all of our fans in France again soon!

UPDATE THE CRANBERRIES: Due to circumstances of force majeure, Palace Resorts regrettably confirms three upcoming performances by The Cranberries scheduled to take place at Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort in Cancun on August 26, 27 and 28, 2016, have been rescheduled. The unexpected announcement is due to the unfortunate medical condition of an injury affecting Dolores O’Riordan, the band’s lead singer.
After several weeks of experiencing severe back pain caused by a bulging disc; sore and limited relief from medications prevented Dolores to go on stage, and the band was forced to cancel their last concert in France. “By now she’s simply not well enough and in too much pain to be able to perform”; said Dr. Masterson of Limerick University.
Regaining her health and ability to perform has been a priority for Dolores in the last few days. Unfortunately, the severe pain and swelling have not allowed her to recover and Dolores has been prescribed with complete rest.
Performances from The Cranberries at Moon Palace Arena will now take place on February 10, 11 and 12, 2017.
Guests who had already reserved tickets through our telemarketing or concierge staff for the shows may contact their assigned agent before September 23, 2016 to confirm their seats for the new dates. After this date, reservations will be forfeit.
For those who purchased tickets for these performances, please see detailed information below regarding new performances on February 10, 11 and 12th, 2017 at Moon Palace Arena:
· If your ticket was for the Friday, August 26, 2016 concert, you can use that ticket to go to the Friday, February 10, 2017 concert.
· If your ticket was for the Saturday, August 27, 2016 concert, you can use that ticket to go to the Saturday, February 11, 2017concert.
· If your ticket was for the Sunday, August 28, 2016 concert, you can use that ticket to go to the Sunday, February 12, 2017 concert.
If you cannot be present for the new dates, you can request a full refund as of Wednesday, August 24, 2016, and until Friday, September 23, 2016.

Although it might seem out of the blue, it looks like Universal Music is about to (rerere)release a The Cranberries “almost” complete session on October 7th, 2016…

Indeed, the below item has just appeared on different websites such as Amazon or eBay under the name “5 Classic Albums”.

61gppmkfu2l

The box set should contain five CDs although Amazon states there is “one disc” inside.
Indeed, if you search for the Universal 5 Classic Albums collection on the Internet, you’ll find box sets for different artists such a Status Quo, Lynyrd Skynyrd and many others, that all include five discs.

We can thus imagine the box set features the band’s first five albums Everybody Else Is Doing It So Why Can’t We, No Need To Argue, To The Faithful Departed, Bury The Hatchet and Wake Up And Smell The Coffee.

This is only an assumption, but what’s for sure is that the cover of the box set looks just GREAT !

Do not read below if you don’t wanna be spoiled as this is possibly the setlist for the next Cranberries show in Lima, Peru. The source comes from Johanna (back vocals) who posted on her Instagram (Story) account a short video filmed during the rehearsals yesterday at the Irish Chamber Orchestra Studio in Limerick. At the very end of the video appears the setlist and The Cranberries Brasil did a screen capture below, so thanks to them for noticing!

For those who can’t read:

Analyse
Animal
Wanted
Linger
When You Gone
Dreaming My Dreams
Just My Imagination
Ode
Loud And Clear
Free To Decide
Can’t Be With You
Conduct
Desperate Andy
Playboys
Salvation
Ridiculous
Zombie

Empty
You And Me
Promises
Dreams

Well, this is not really a proper spoil as this is the same set as the European shows this summer. Fans in Peru probably won’t be disappointed as they haven’t seen the band live for almost 7 years. Remember that The Cranberries didn’t visit the South American continent with their Roses Tour and the last time the band played in Lima was during the Reunion Tour in February 2010. This setlist will probably appear as fresh for all the fans over there.

Con una brillante carrera musical a sus espaldas, The Cranberries se han consolidado como uno de los grupos más aclamados del panorama internacional de las últimas díécadas. Muchos soñábamos con su regreso, que es ahora una realidad: Su síéptimo álbum de estudio verá la luz en Mayo de 2017. Así­ lo contaban en la entrevista que el guitarrista Noel Hogan y el baterista Fergal Lawler concedieron a Publimetro en Perú.

Ya lo adelantaban ellos mismos en su web oficial: 2017 serí­a un gran año para The Cranberries en lo que a grabación y gira se refiere. Están apunto de terminar un álbum en acústico con la Irish Chamber Orchestra, en el que sus grandes íéxitos experimentarán nuevos sonidos. Si el simple hecho de imaginar canciones como “Zombie”, “Linger”, “Animal Instinct” o “Can’t Be With You” en acústico y con unos arreglos de cuerdas pone la piel de gallina, las tres nuevas canciones que vendrán incluidas en este álbum no dejan lugar a dudas de que estamos hablando de una de las grandes promesas musicales del próximo año. Esperan que el álbum sea publicado en Mayo de 2017. Este lanzamiento vendrá seguido de una nueva gira promocional. Además, habrá un noveno álbum, con temas completamente nuevos, que saldrá despuíés.

Dando un paseo por el jardí­n de los recuerdos, poco podí­an imaginar aquellos chavales de Limerick, con la cabeza llena de sueños e ilusiones, que algún dí­a llegarí­an con su música a lo más alto de las listas de ventas, que un público internacional que reúne a varias generaciones corearí­a sus canciones al uní­sono. Es la esencia de The Cranberries, lo que les permite interactuar con sus seguidores:

La gente disfruta con sus canciones porque les transmiten y les permiten darles una interpretación. Porque es fácil empatizar con The Cranberries cuando hablan de sus inquietudes e ilusiones; pero tambiíén cuando expresan rabia y desilusión; cuando hablan del renacer tras el dolor, o de la aceptación y la sabidurí­a de la madurez. Es así­ como conectan con su público: Cuando no dominan el idioma de la audiencia para la que están tocando, dejan que sean sus canciones las que hablen por ellos.

Cuando les preguntan, Noel y Fergal no se deciden a escoger solo una canción que represente la carrera de The Cranberries. Y no es de extrañar; eso serí­a posible para cualquier banda de un solo íéxito, pero no es íése el caso de The Cranberries. Cada canción representa un momento, una parte de sus vidas, una parte de ellos, de su ser. Es por esto que para The Cranberries, lo más importante es el sonido, “el sonido de Cranberries” y que cada elemento de la composición tenga su espacio en una perfecta armoní­a.

The Cranberries are currently applying the finishing touches to a new unplugged album of hits with three new tunes thrown in for good measure.

Due through BMG in April, the lion’s share of the recording was done in the Irish Chamber of Orchestra building out at the University of Limerick.

Having had extra strings added to it this week in Dublin by Noel Hogan, the as-yet-unnamed collection is down to the last mixes stage, and will be with you well in time for summer!

The Cranberries ha anunciado dos conciertos en España en el mes de junio. Se celebrarán el domingo 4 en el Auditori del Fí²rum de Barcelona y el lunes 5 en el Wizink Center (formato The Box) de Madrid. En esta gira están acompañados de un cuarteto de cuerda con el que interpretan sus grandes íéxitos en formato acústico.

La banda irlandesa se dio a conocer en 1992 con el álbum «Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?», que les lanzó a la categorí­a de estrellas del pop-rock del momento. Fue en esa díécada cuando vivieron su momento de mayor reconocimiento. Posteriormente hicieron un pequeño parón en su carrera, desde 2002 a 2009, perí­odo aprovechado por su vocalista, Dolores O'Riordan, para publicar dos álbumes en solitario.

Han vendido más de cuarenta millones de discos en todo el mundo, y han logrado situar cuatro álbumes en el top 20 del Billboard y 20 singles en los primeros puestos de la listas de rock alternativo.

Las entradas se podrán adquirir a partir de las 10.00h del próximo viernes, 10 de febrero, a travíés de doctormusic.com y red de venta de Ticketmaster. El precio de las entradas serán de 44, 48, 52, 54, 64 y 75 euros para Barcelona y de 42, 48, 54, 64 y 75 euros para Madrid, gastos de distribución no incluidos.

Not a surprise for this one, The Cranberries will play festival “Fíªte du Bruit dans Landerneau” in Landerneau, France on August 11, 2017.
As you may remember, The Cranberries had to cancel their show last year and the promoter wanted to have them back.

This show deserves a separate news mostly because tickets are not sold through the French promoter’s website (yet?) and is not presented as an acoustic performance like the May/June tour. The artwork does not include any violin. Same thing for the very first show that appeared online last week in Marbella, Spain: it is unclear whether or not these shows are part of the acoustic tour, but we have reasons to think they are not.
So… what’s your opinion? Do you believe these 2 shows are gonna be acoustic with the string quartet or electric ones?

The suspens is over!!!
Since The Cranberries had announced summer festivals dates, some fans were wondering whether these performances would be acoustic with the string quartet, like the indoor tour announced for May & June 2017, or if they would be regular “electric” shows.

The Cranberries World team contacted festivals Trollrock (July 29th), Marbella (August 5th) and Landerneau (August 11th) to shade light on this, and Trollrock has just answered to confirm the band will be giving an ELECTRIC SHOW in Norway on July 29th.

We’re still awaiting feedbacks from Marbella & Landerneau, though it now makes almost no doubt that these summer festivals won’t be acoustic shows.

Two new interesting articles about the new album ‘Something Else’ were published today. One in Spanish on Jenesaispop.com and one in English on EntertainmentWeekly.com
There’s a few words in both articles about the theme of every new song. These words come from the press release issued by BMG and quoting Dolores:

-The Glory: written by O’Riordan in the Irish Chamber Orchestra’s rehearsal rooms at the University of Limerick. “I was trying to think of the fact that there is always hope, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel no matter how dark life may be. It can be difficult at times, but you have to find the light and the positive in things.”
-Rupture: a track centered around depression “about being in that black hole and finding it hard to get out of it”
-Why: “written just after my father passed away, at the most difficult time”

On the Spanish article only, more (intriguing?) quotes from Dolores:
‘Something Else’ is a nod to the title of our debut album, it’s an uncertain title. It’s not saying there’s going to be more and it’s not saying that this is a great end, either, it’s who knows if there’s going to be more. I think it relates to the first record very well. I have no idea what awaits us. It’s not the nineties anymore, that’s for sure. Nor would I want them to be. Let’s hope there’s more to come. I hope fans like what we’ve done with the songs. I guess you wonder how long your songs will live. I think ours have been very lucky.

Cranberries habí­an anunciado ya una gira con cuarteto de cuerda y un disco en el que revisitaban 10 de sus íéxitos y presentaban 3 temas nuevos. Rolling Stone estrenaba hace un par de dí­as la nueva versión de ‘Linger’ -fiel a la original, aunque sin tantos autocoros-, pero ha sido en San Patricio, el Dí­a Nacional de Irlanda, cuando ha aparecido en las plataformas de streaming.

Tambiíén San Patricio es la fecha elegida para que los autores de ‘So Cold In Ireland’ den los detalles de su nuevo álbum. En una nota de prensa emitida por BMG, su nuevo sello (ahora son compañeros de Texas o Kylie), se revela de quíé hablan las tres canciones nuevas, sobre la depresión sufrida recientemente por Dolores O’Riordan, que se reconocí­a bipolar, y la muerte de su padre: “”La primera fue ‘The Glory’, que Dolores explica que escribió en las salas de ensayo de la Orquesta de Cámara de Irlanda en la Universidad de Limerick. “Estaba tratando de pensar en el hecho de que siempre hay esperanza, siempre hay una luz al final del túnel sin importar lo oscura que pueda llegar la vida. Puede ser difí­cil a veces, pero hay que buscar la luz y lo positivo en las cosas”. Además sacó dos canciones de su escondite personal en los últimos dos años, esperando encontrar un hogar: ‘Rupture’ (“trata de la depresión, acerca de estar en ese agujero negro y encontrar difí­cil de salir de íél”) y el próximo single ‘Why?’ (“escrito justo despuíés de que mi padre falleciera, en el momento más difí­cil”)”. Se espera que el single ‘Why?’ salga la semana que viene.

Por otro lado, Dolores habla tambiíén en esa nota de prensa sobre el posible final del grupo, o no. ‘Something Else’ es un guiño al tí­tulo de su debut, ‘Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We?’. “No es un tí­tulo determinado”, dice Dolores. “No está diciendo que vaya a haber más y no está diciendo que este es un gran final, tampoco, es quiíén sabe si va a haber más. Creo que se relaciona con el primer disco muy bien. No tengo ni idea de lo que nos espera. Ya no son los años noventa, eso es seguro. Y tampoco querrí­a que lo fueran. Esperemos que haya más por venir. Espero que a los fans les guste lo que hemos hecho con las canciones. Supongo que te preguntas por cuánto tiempo vivirán tus canciones. Creo que las nuestras han tenido mucha suerte”.

Cranberries actúan en Madrid y Barcelona en junio y en agosto en Marbella. Las entradas para verles en Marbella están disponibles en Ticketea

The tour is called “something else tour”:

We are very pleased to confirm that our ‘Something Else’ tour will be heading to North America and Canada in September & October 2017. These very special shows will feature our Greatest Hits, performed with a String Quartet! Don’t miss it!
 
All dates are on general sale from Friday 5th May!
 
11-Sep – Nashville, TN – Schermerhorn Symphony Center
13-Sep – Atlanta, GA – The Tabernacle
16-Sep – New York, NY – Terminal 5
18-Sep – Washington, DC – The 9:30 Club

A few more dates might be announced soon as the band said in their recent interviews that the U.S./Canadian tour was counting 18 dates including 2 in New York.

Let’s also note that, still according to the recent interviews and to the fact this announcement does not mention any “acoustic” show, it all tends to show that this “something else tour”, unlike the European tour, will be performed with a string quartet, but not acoustically.
Also, Dolores and Noel previously mentioned that in those cities, they should not be touring with ICO members but some local strings musicians.

The Cranberries’ latest reunion was a happy accident. It’d been a few years since the Celtic-rock brooders’ last release, 2012’s Roses, which they dropped more than a decade after going on hiatus in 2003. But of all things, it was ABC’s The Bachelorette that got lead singer Dolores O’Riordan and guitarist Noel Hogan back in the same room, where they performed an orchestral version of “Linger” for the show’s resident husband hunter (and her date).

O’Riordan and Hogan had such a good time that day that they decided to record a whole new album of songs both classic and new in the same stripped-down style, not unlike they had on MTV’s Unplugged in 1995. Among the songs they revisited on the record, titled Something Else, were Clinton-era standards like “Linger,” “Zombie,” and “Dreams,” among others. They also wrote three new tracks, one of which is about the death of O’Riordan’s father. “It’s really about the in-between and the afterlife,” she tells me during a visit to Paste’s New York office. “I wonder, “Is there an in-between? Is there somewhere that the soul goes?” A lot of strange coincidences happen that make you realize that there’s definitely something more. I have no doubt in my mind that there’s more than this world and this dimension.”

Below, O’Riordan and Hogan delve further into reuniting The Cranberries, who are celebrating their 25th anniversary this year; learning the term “Generation X” two decades after the fact and the time Michael Stipe wore O’Riordan’s “red rubber mini with little nipples coming out of it.”

Paste: How did you initially decide to reform The Cranberries?

Dolores O’Riordan: The Bachelorette.

Noel Hogan: Right. Was that two years ago? That’s going to be our claim to fame.

O’Riordan: That was two years ago. Before that, our city got this award as The City of Culture, and I did a performance in Limerick on New Year’s Eve with the Irish Chamber Orchestra Quartet. That went really well. It was live. It was five songs. And then a couple of years later, The Bachelorette approached and asked if I’d do “Linger” with the Quartet for the grand finale. I don’t watch it, but… It was filmed in Christ Church in Dublin, so it was nice.

Paste: That sounds oddly creative for The Bachelorette.

O’Riordan: Isn’t it?

Hogan: And random, yeah. We rehearsed it just an hour before we did it. Two hours before we went on, we were like, we’d better run through this. But “Linger” is one of those songs… The strings were always part of it. So it wasn’t going to be a big, difficult, complicated thing to do live, you know? I think that night we both spoke after that kind of the idea for this album.

O’Riordan: [A stripped-down album] had been suggested before. The Vatican orchestra approached me, because I’ve done a few gigs out there. The conductor approached me and was like, “We’d really like to do an album where we’re your band,” and I was like, “That’ll be lovely, but there’s like 80 people in that orchestra. How could you ever pay for that? That’ll cost a fortune.” So this was actually something that we could do because it was four people. It made sense financially. So we’re actually bringing a quartet on the road with us. What we’ll do is, the local promoter will hire three people, so in each venue we’ll have three people—relative strangers—onstage with us. The main guy from the quartet is going to come on tour with us. So we’ll have booked 26 dates across Europe and hopefully the States in September. Like, we can’t perform in the U.S. until September because we’re waiting for our permits to come through.

Paste: Something Else purposefully strips down your older material to be more acoustic. What was the process like to reconfigure the old songs?

Hogan: All of these songs were originally written acoustic. They would have come from that. So to bring it all the way back to the basics, we knew that was doable.

O’Riordan: We did [“Zombie”] at the MTV Unplugged, actually.

Hogan: I actually did watch that Unplugged a couple of times on YouTube just to see what way we were doing it, and for me, I was thinking, just—bang—[take] electric guitars out of it. Try and break it down. And then it was this time last year we went to start this album. For us, that’s good. ‘Cause we can be …

O’Riordan: We can be quite slow.

Hogan: We recorded it very much like we would a normal album in that we’d get the drums and bass down first, then the acoustic went down, and the strings of the instruments were kind of the last thing to go down. And then Dolores’s vocal. And that’s kind of how we would do a regular album.

O’Riordan: Initially we did go to The Irish Chamber Orchestra. It’s up at the University of Limerick. It’s a very high building; the acoustics are amazing. We went in there thinking we’d do everything live on the floor. But it didn’t happen because everything was spilling and bleeding out into the microphone. All of these strings were coming down, too much reverb. So we ended up doing it in pieces.

Paste: What inspired you to incorporate yodeling when you were developing your singing style?

O’Riordan: My father loved to yodel, and he sang a song called “The Lonesome Cattle Call.” [To Noel] Do you know that?

Hogan: No.

O’Riordan: You might know it if you heard it. I think Marty Robbins sings it, it’s a pretty famous cowboy song [Editor’s note: Dolores is referring to “The Cattle Song” by Eddy Arnold.] He was always yodeling, and I was very little and I was like, “How do you do that, Dada?” I just kept with my father all the time, just copying him and eventually I learned how to do it. Then over the years there were artists like Siníéad O’Connor and Siouxsie from Siouxsie and the Banshees and even Peter Harvey was doing it. It was something that you could work into The Cranberries’ format because a lot of that was used in religious Irish music.

Paste: The new single, “Why,” is beautiful. Can you give me a little background on it?

O’Riordan: I wrote that about a year-and-a-half after my father passed away. I was kind of confused about it all, because I was holding his hand when he took his last breath. I was really so glad that I was there with him because I had this fear that I’d be on tour; so many of my family died and even got buried and I wasn’t at their funerals. My grandfather died in the ‘90s and we were on tour, and I wrote a song called “When You’re Gone” about him, and I remember being really devastated. But The Cranberries were contractually bound and there was no way to go back and see them.

So I had this dread all the time in my head that my father would die and I wouldn’t be with him, but thanks be to God I was with him, and it gave me great peace and a great sense of comfort. So he passed on, and the shock kind of kicks in for a while and I went out on the road with The Cranberries for the Roses tour about six or eight weeks after he died. It was actually the most difficult tour I ever did in my life, and I kind of hit rock bottom on that tour; it was really bad. Then once that tour was finished I began to write again, and this song came very quickly.

Paste: The record definitely comes full circle, historically. I was reading the Rolling Stone profile of you from 1995, have you ever gone back to that?

O’Riordan: No, I don’t really read my interviews or anything like that. It’s tough enough to do ‘em and then if you start to read them you’ll be getting paranoid about yourself.

Paste: The cover looks like something that could’ve come out today. Some of your videos, aesthetically, look like they could’ve been made today, too. Is that surreal for you, the nostalgia for ‘90s pop culture?

O’Riordan: The ‘90s was cool wasn’t it? Somebody told me it was called Generation X. Did you know that? I didn’t, I’ve been living under a rock.

Paste: It’s funny because “Liar,” my favorite Cranberries song, was on the Empire Records soundtrack and Empire Records is one of the most famous cult Gen X films.

Hogan: That song was just a B-side or something but it’s just so popular. I don’t think it’s on any of the albums.

Paste: It’s not! To what extent do you get asked by younger fans about what it was like in the ‘90s? Seeing as it’s a decade Gen Z seeks to emulate in terms of fashion?

Hogan: Well, my 16-year-old keeps saying “I wish I was around then,” because she just looks around and thinks all of the things are so cool. It’s nothing to do with The Cranberries or anything, just the whole ‘90s thing. Songs come on the radio, on what’s now classic radio at home, and she’s singing along to all these songs and I’m like, “How do you know that, even?” It just goes to show how many great things there were, but at the time you take it for granted. You’re living in the moment.


Paste: ‘90s songs being on classic-rock radio always throws me for a loop.

Hogan: Yeah, to me, classic radio was always like The Beatles, The Stones, stuff like that, but now most of the kids wouldn’t know half of those songs.

Paste: In looking at a lot of the fashions, and what you guys were wearing in promo shots then, I see a lot of that today. The ‘90s came back and we romanticize it. Not just because they were so cool culturally, but politically speaking they were a more optimistic time.

Hogan: A more innocent time, I think. We just kind of got on with things. For me the ‘90s is always just such great memories. We were doing the band and getting to travel the world and see so much and do so much. There are nothing but good memories, really.

Paste: You guys were really young when you started. Was there any moment in the rush of things, maybe someone you met or a gig you had, where you felt like, “Woah, this is real now”?

Hogan: First person I met that I always remember is Michael Stipe. We were doing the “Linger” video and he came down. We kind of grew up listening to R.E.M. and you’re standing in the hallway in the hotel where we shot the “Linger” video just chatting away. And gig-wise, I know I always remember Woodstock in ‘94. It was just as far as you could see.

O’Riordan: We had to take a chopper over the crowd, and I’d say maybe one or two kilometers square was just people in camps. Of course [I had] nerves, because we had to perform. It was like, “Shall I poop or shall I puke? What side is it gonna come out of?” But we actually ended up opening up for R.E.M. on a summer tour, and Oasis were on that tour. Michael Stipe came into my dressing room and he said, “Can I see your wardrobe?” I had this red rubber mini, with little nipples coming out of it, and he says, “Oh that’s pretty cool,” and I said, “Yeah, I know!” but I hadn’t actually had the courage to wear it. He said, “Do you mind if I borrow it?” So, next thing we went to the stage and do our opening slot and then I went down to see him perform and he was wearing it, he’d put it on.


Paste: Did you ever get to wear it?

O’Riordan: No, I just put it in a china cabinet. But we opened up for AC/DC and The Stones as well, that was another great experience.

Hogan: Yeah, that was cool as well. I think anytime you meet people that you grew up with you’re always kind of starstruck in some ways. You never really believe you’re sitting there talking with them like that. It’s one of the perks of the job, really.

O’Riordan: I got to meet with Pavarotti. It was Pavarotti & Friends and there were a lot of really cool artists there going up on stage. Me and Simon Le Bon did “Linger” together and he said “Lingah” instead of “Lingerrr.”

Paste: Dolores, I also wanted to ask about you D.A.R.K. Do you and Andy [Rourke] have any plans to continue that project?

O’Riordan: We were going to do a tour, but I got a problem with my back and we had to postpone it and then I ended up going back with The Cranberries, and we just got cracking on this album. But we might do more work together in the future. I’m a big fan of The Smiths and it’s nice to work with Andy. Andy has a lot of fans. People get really excited because he’s a Smith. Because there are only four of them, and the band is so iconic that their fans are really into them.


Paste: What do you see in The Cranberries’ future, going forward?

O’Riordan: We’re hopefully going to do an album of new material after this one. We’re kind of slow when it comes to writing, because we live in different countries and we take so much time off. We’re terrible for writing, aren’t we?

Hogan: Yeah, it’s like your life gets in the way these days. You’ve got so many other things. Through the ‘90s this was all we did; we wrote, toured, wrote, recorded, so I think we did so much of it then it was like overkill, that now you do this for a while and then you go, “Alright I won’t see you for two months now.” Everybody goes off and does their own thing, granted we’ll pop an email to each other or a call or something. Then when we get back into it, we go doing it, but it’s good to get away from it and forget that this is like the day job. But because of that we take forever to do everything.

We’re getting older as well, so we slowed down. You have a lot to prove at the beginning, and you’re thirsty for it as well; you’re hungry to do that. But definitely as you get older you realize there’s other priorities that need to take place. But when we do write new songs and get those first few bits together we sort of get on a roll then, and when we get on that we keep going on that and then we slow down for a while. It comes in bursts that way.

The Cranberries ha anunciado hoy a través de sus redes sociales que algunos de los conciertos que estaban previstos dentro de su gira europea, incluidos los que habían de celebrarse en Madrid y Barcelona, han sido suspendidos debido a la salud de su cantante, Dolores O'Riordan. «Se le ha indicado que debe cesar inmediatamente el trabajo durante las próximas cuatro semanas por razones médicas, debido a un problema con su espalda», señala el mensaje publicado hace solo unas horas por los autores de "Zombie".

A continuación, se detalla la lista de "shows" que quedan temporalmente cancelados, empezando por la actuación que debían ofrecer el 24 de mayo en Gateshead (Reino Unido) hasta la prevista para el 16 de junio en Amsterdam. Eso implica que no se celebrarán los conciertos del 4 de junio en el Auditori del Fórum de Barcelona ni el que un día después debía tener lugar en el WiZink Center de Madrid, pero sí los de Marbella (5 de agosto, dentro de Starlite) y el del Festival Internacional de Música de la localidad tarraconense de Cambrils (7 de agosto). En estos momentos se trabaja para reubicar estos shows en otras fechas y se remite a aquellas personas que deseen devolver sus entradas a los mismos puntos de venta donde las adquirieron.

«Lo sentimos mucho por todos los inconvenientes ocasionados, la decisión no se ha tomado a la ligera, pero la salud de Dolores es primordial», concluye el mensaje.

Cercanos al 30 aniversario de su formación, que tuvo lugar en Limerick City en 1989, la banda integrada por la vocalista Dolores O'Riordan, el guitarrista Noel Hogan, Mike Hogan al bajo y Fegal Lawler a la batería, es una de las más exitosas de Irlanda. En su actual gira, presentan sus grandes éxitos en formato acústico y acompañados por un cuarteto de cuerda, tal y como se recogen en su última grabación, "Something else"

Thanks for the many good wishes to Dolores posted on our social pages since the announcement of the cancellation of all our Summer shows up to mid August due to her ongoing back problem. There have been some comments suggesting that Dolores could perform if she sat while singing. Unfortunately it is not as simple as that. Dolores' back problem is in the mid to upper area of her spine and the breathing and diaphragmatic movements associated with singing put pressure on the muscles and nerves in that area and exacerbate the pain. Sitting does not give any relief and at times in her case it can actually worsen the pain. Please be assured that we would not have cancelled these shows if there was any way that Dolores could perform them. We are extremely disappointed that we have had to do so and again sincerely apologise to all affected and hope to get back to see you all at some time hopefully in the not too distant future when Dolores has recovered

***** The Cranberries – Statement *****

The outpouring of support The Cranberries have received from fans and followers during the past several months is greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately Dolores O’Riordan’s recovery from her ongoing back problem which forced the cancellation of most of the band’s European tour this Summer has not been going as well as expected to such extent that her Doctors have now instructed her to cancel her upcoming almost sold out tour of North America with the band.

Dolores and the band are very disappointed that it has come to this and send their sincere apologies to all fans and ticket holders, and hope to see you all again in the future when Dolores is well again.

Limerick singer and Cranberries front woman Dolores O’Riordan has died suddenly in London at the age of 46.

Her publicist confirmed the news in a statement which reads: "The lead singer with the Irish band The Cranberries was in London for a short recording session. No further details are available at this time.

"Family members are devastated to hear the breaking news and have requested privacy at this very difficult time."

The circumstances of her death are as yet unknown.

Speaking to the Limerick Leader, family friend Canon Liam McNamara said: "My heart goes out to the family. Dolores was their pride and joy. We all loved her very, very much."

Fr McNamara was a was a co-celebrant at Dolores' wedding to tour manager of rock band Duran Duran, Don Burton in Holycross Abbey in County Tipperary in 1994.


He added: "She got on well all the way through her life. I was very disappointed to hear today that she has left us so early in life. Her family did so much for her and supported her all the way through."

O'Riordan, a native of Ballybricken, shot to fame in the early 1990s as frontwoman of The Cranberries, who went on to massive international success and sold over 40 million records worldwide.

Their hits included Zombie, Linger and Dreams. O’Riordan’s haunting vocals were the act's main selling point and they released five original albums before taking a break in 2003.

O'Riordan released two solo albums during the hiatus and The Cranberries reformed in 2009. In 2017, the group cancelled their European and US tours due to illness after Dolores cited back issues.

The Cranberries released a new album entitled Something Else in 2017, featuring acoustic versions of their hits along with three new songs.

La cantante de The Cranberries, Dolores O'Riordan, ha muerto este lunes a los 46 años en Londres. El encargado de informar ha sido su representante. «Sus familiares se están desolados tras escuchar las últimas noticias y han solicitado privacidad en este momento tan difícil», podía leerse en el comunicado hecho público. De momento no se han precisado más detalles sobre las causas de su fallecimiento, aunque se sabe que la artista se encontraba en la capital inglesa realizando una grabación.

La nota explica tan solo que O'Riordan, madre de tres hijos, ha muerto «súbitamente». En su último mensaje en Twitter, publicado el 4 de enero, la cantante de The Cranberries se despedía de su gato Gio con una fotografía en la que ella misma aparecía con su mascota en brazos. Desde entonces, la artista, que padecía un trastorno bipolar, no se había manifestado en las redes sociales.


Aunque la triste noticia ha cogido por sorpresa a sus seguidores, en mayo la banda irlándesa ya anunció a través de las redes sociales que cancelaba algunos de los conciertos que tenía previstos dentro de su gira por Estados Unidos y Europa, incluidos los que iban a celebrarse en Madrid (4 de junio) y Barcelona (5 de junio). Las causas, según informaron entonces, eran los problemas de salud de O'Riordan. «Se le ha indicado que debe cesar inmediatamente el trabajo durante las próximas cuatro semanas por razones médicas debido a un problema con su espalda», señalaba entonces el mensaje publicado por los autores de «Zombie», un éxito de ventas cuyo vídeo oficial superaba ayer los 630 millones de reproduciones en YouTube. «Lo sentimos mucho por todos los inconvenientes ocasionados, la decisión no se ha tomado a la ligera, pero la salud de Dolores es primordial», concluía el mensaje.

La muestras de afecto no se han hecho esperar en las redes sociales. «Estamos destrozados tras escuchar las noticias sobre la muerte de Dolores O'Riordan», podía leerse en el perfil del grupo Duran Duran en Twitter.

Cercanos al 30 aniversario de su formación, que tuvo lugar en Limerick City en 1989, la banda integrada, además, por el guitarrista Noel Hogan, el bajista Mike Hogan y el batería Fegal Lawler, fue una de las más exitosas de no solo de Irlanda, sino del mundo. En su gira del año pasado debían presentar un recopilatorio con sus grandes éxitos en formato acústico, en que irían acompañados por un cuarteto de cuerda, tal y como se recogían en su última grabación, «Something else».

The Cranberries fue uno de los grupos de rock de más éxito de los 90. Vendieron más de cuarenta millones de discos después de darse a conocer a principios de dicha década con el popular álbum «Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?», que incluía su primer éxito, «Linger». En 2002 la banda sacó a la venta un recopilatorio y, a partir de 2004, O'Riordan comenzó su carrera en solitario. Su primer trabajo fue «Are You Listening?», en 2007, al que siguió dos años después «No Baggage». En 2009, la banda volvió a juntarse, realizando varias giras, la última de ellas «Something Else Tour» entre mayo y octubre de 2017.

En abril de 2014, Dolores O'Riordan se unía al bajista de The Smiths, Andy Rourke, uno de los grupos que más le marcó en su adolescencia. Ambos, junto al DJ neoyorquino Olé Koretsky formaban un nuevo grupo musical llamado D.A.R.K. Su primer álbum, «Science Agrees», se publicó en 2016. Anunciaron una fecha para presentarlo en Madrid, pero tuvieron también que cancelarla por la misma lesión de espalda que había truncado la última gira de The Cranberries. Este nuevo proyecto, con el que la cantante estaba muy ilusionada, heredaba la esencia del llamado sonido Madchester, del que fueron abanderador grupos como Stone Roses, James, Happy Mondays y The Charlatans en los 90.

Aunque a la cantante de The Cranberries el éxito le llegó muy joven, con tan solo 21 años, su infancia fue de todo menos fácil. En una entrevista que concedió hace años al periódico «Sunday Independent», la cantante reveló que de pequeña estuvo sufriendo abusos sexuales durante cuatro años por una persona de confianza del entorno de su casa, al sur de Irlanda. Fue entre los 8 y 12 años, y el abusador era un vecino de su urbanización.

El año pasado año, O'Riordan protagonizó una de la pocas polémicas de su vida: fue condenada a pagar una multa de 6.000 euros por agredir a un policía, después de ser detenida en un avión al estar alterando el orden durante un vuelo. En aquel incidente, la vocalista de The Cranberries llegó a agredir a una azafata durante su desplazamiento al aeropuerto de Shannon, al oeste de Irlanda, desde Nueva York. Durante su detención, la artista, que padece un trastorno bipolar, insultó también a los policías a gritos de «soy un icono mundial» o «la reina de Limerick».

We are devastated on the passing of our friend Dolores. She was an extraordinary talent and we feel very privileged to have been part of her life from 1989 when we started the Cranberries. The world has lost a true artist today.

La Policía británica informó hoy de que no considera «sospechosa» la muerte de la cantante irlandesa Dolores O'Riordan, la líder de la banda The Cranberries que fue hallada sin vida en un hotel de Londres ayer lunes.

Un portavoz de Scotland Yard recordó hoy que los agentes encontraron el cuerpo ya inerte de la artista, de 46 años, en su habitación de un céntrico hotel de la capital del Reino Unido, donde se encontraba para participar en una «breve sesión de grabación», según explicó su representante.

El portavoz policial indicó que la «muerte no se considera sospechosa» y que sus causas son aún «inexplicables», por lo que el caso, agregó, está en manos del forense, quien determinará las circunstancias exactas del fallecimiento repentino de O'Riordan.


Los medios irlandeses señalan que las informaciones policiales dejan entrever que su muerte pudo deberse a causas naturales, mientras que la propia cantante había dicho a un amigo pocas horas antes de su muerte que estaba deseando entrar en el estudio de grabación.

O'Riordan parecía haber recuperado su salud, tal y como ella misma explicó el pasado diciembre en el perfil de Facebook de The Cranberries, cuando celebró que había dado en Nueva York su primer concierto «en meses» y que se sentía «genial», después de cancelar pocos meses antes la gira del grupo por problemas de espalda.

Al hilo de esta mejoría, la cantante tenía previsto poner hoy su voz a una versión del tema clásico de The Cranberries «Zombie», tocada por el grupo estadounidense de rock duro Bad Wolves.

El productor musical Dan Waite, amigo personal de Dolores O'Riordan, reveló ayer que Dolores le dejó un mensaje poco después de la medianoche del pasado domingo y que sonaba como si estuviera «llena de vida», al tiempo que confesaba «cuánto le gustaba la versión de 'Zombie' de Bad Wolves».

«Bromeaba y estaba deseando verme a mí y a mi esposa esta semana. La noticia de su muerte es devastadora y mis pensamientos están con su exmarido Don (Burton), sus hijos y su madre», afirmó Waite.

El hotel Hilton, de Park Lane, junto al Hyde Park de Londres, ha resultado ser la última casa a la que entró la cantautora irlandesa Dolores O'Riordan, vocalista del grupo The Cranberries. Llegó al hotel el domingo por la noche y el lunes a las 9 de la mañana la Policía fue alertada del hallazgo de un cadáver en una habitación del hotel. Las causas de su muerte, de momento, son desconocidas. Tenía 46 años de edad y una vida turbulenta de la que ella decía: "He tenido también alegrías como las que me han dado mis hijos".La década de 1990 fue, en apariencia, su época dorada con la venta de millones de discos y su matrimonio, en 1994, con Don Burton, ex mánager del grupo musical Duran Duran, con quien tuvo tres hijos: Taylor (20), Molly (16) y Dakota Rain (12). En el 2003 se deshizo el grupo que formaba con otros tres músicos. Una de las causas de la ruptura apuntaba a la hostilidad entre Dolores y el guitarrista Noel Hogan, miembro de la banda con su hermano Michael Hogan. El grupo se reunió de nuevo en 2009 para grabar el disco Roses. Por entonces, Dolores ya se había divorciado de Don y alternaba su vida entre una granja en Ontorio (Canadá) y otra en las afueras de Dublín (Irlanda) con sus hijos.

En 2014 provocó un incidente en un avión que iba de Dublín a Nueva York al agredir a tres agentes y a un miembro de la tripulación. Se declaró culpable del altercado, aunque en la vista judicial del caso presentó documentación médica que revelaba que padecía alteraciones físicas y mentales. "La depresión es de lo peor que te puede ocurrir por los altos y bajos que te produce, aunque yo también he disfrutado de buenos momentos", dijo al mismo tiempo que reconocía padecer trastorno bipolar desde mucho tiempo atrás. Hizo un llamamiento público a través de los medios en varias ocasiones para que los enfermos de alteraciones mentales hablen de ellas sin reservas ni vergüenza ni miedo ni pudor al que dirán o al estigma que se asocia a estas dolencias.

Para Dolores, las heridas psicológicas tardaron más en cicatrizar que las físicas si es que estas últimas llegaron a hacerlo. Hace unos meses canceló una gira por dolores de espalda. Como su amiga, la cantante Sinead O'Connor, encontró consuelo en la religión en algunos momentos de su vida. Era contraria al aborto a pesar de que condenaba otros mandatos de la Iglesia católica. En varias ocasiones se le incluía en la lista de las mujeres más ricas de Irlanda. Una circunstancia muy lejana a sus orígenes pobres, más cercanos a la famosa novela Las cenizas de Angela, un relato de la pobreza en la ciudad de Limerick, al suroeste de la isla de Irlanda, donde nació y creció también Dolores.

La cantante, cuya muerte ha causado conmoción en el mundo de la música, era la menor de siete hermanos en la aldea rural de Ballybricken, junto a Limerick. Su padre quedó paralítico tras un accidente mientras la familia de nueve miembros ocupaba una humilde vivienda de dos dormitorios. Una de sus hermanas provocó accidentalmente un incendio en la casa y la familia quedó a merced de la caridad y la beneficencia del vecindario y la parroquia en un momento en que el estado del bienestar era precario en la República de Irlanda. Dolores recordaba esta etapa de su vida con nitidez y sin lamento.

Las dolencias físicas y psicológicas se amalgamaban en la vida y la profesión de esta mujer de quien mosén Liam McNamara, el cura de la familia O'Riordan, ha dicho al periódico de Limerick: "Siento profundamente su muerte por toda la familia porque ella era su orgullo y su satisfacción; su familia hizo mucho por ella y la apoyó del principio al final". Su familia se ha mostrado "destrozada" y ha pedido privacidad después que su agente confirmara el fallecimiento de otro mito musical cuya vida queda truncada a temprana edad.

This morning, independent.ie announced that post-mortem results are due for release tomorrow.

Let’s note note however that website Santa Monica Observer announced that a source in the London Police Department said Dolores O’ Riordan died of Fentanyl poisoning:

Lead Singer of the Cranberries Dolores O’Riordan died of Fentanyl poisoning Monday, said a source in the London Police Department. Authorities found counterfeit fentanyl near the 46 years old rocker’s bed. The source added that an official cause of death will probably have to wait for a toxicology report. He added that suicide and a deliberate overdose are suspected.

The Mirror reported that Dolores was found dead in the toilet by the cleaners. She was staying at the London Hilton on Park Lane.

Earlier this week, the body of Cranberries singer Dolores O’Riordan was found in a London hotel room. While police have yet to establish a cause of death for the 46-year-old musician, her bandmates and family have been absorbing it all and requesting privacy. "My friend, partner, and the love of my life is gone," O'Riordan's partner Olé Koretsky said in a statement. "My heart is broken and it is beyond repair."

Noel Hogan, the Cranberries guitarist who co-founded the group and co-wrote many of their songs with O'Riordan, maintained a decades-long friendship with the singer. The band had planned to tour last year, but cancelled the trek due to O'Riordan's "ongoing back problem." Speaking to Rolling Stone via e-mail, Hogan spoke about the singer's life, influence and legacy.

My earliest memory of Dolores singing is the first day I met her [in 1990]. We used to rehearse in a local studio in Limerick called Xeric. Dolores came in to hear us play and we got to hear her sing. She had a small keyboard that she set up and sang a few songs she had written. We were all blown away that this small girl from Limerick had such an amazing voice. The fact that she wasn't already in a band was a miracle.

In my opinion, what made Dolores connect with people was her honesty. What you saw was what you got. In the early days, the band was very shy; especially Dolores. She sang with her back to the audience but sang songs that people could relate to. There was no big act. I don’t think people were used to this, and it seemed to resonate with them.

I’m not sure at what point Dolores accepted fame, or if she ever did. We would get a great kick out of it all, as if it were someone else that people were coming to see or talk about. Dolores was a very private person under it all. It was like she went to work and became Dolores the public version, then went home and lived her life away from all that.

Like anyone, Dolores had grown up by the time our later albums [like 2012's Roses] came out. When we were in our twenties, we had something to prove. You keep pushing and worrying about what people think. By the time Dolores did the last two albums, she was very relaxed in herself. The pressure was off and it was a great atmosphere to work in. I think she felt far more confident as an artist by then.

She was so disappointed when we had to cancel the last tour. She had looked forward to it for so long. She did everything in her power to fix the back problem, but it persisted and won in the end. We were about to start the next album in the coming months – along with some shows we were looking at. We had hoped the first of these would have been this March.

I spoke to Dolores last Friday and she was great. We spoke about getting back to work – recording and new tracks we were working on. She sent some of those tracks to me by email on Sunday morning.

Dolores had a lot of things going on in her life over the past 10 years – good and bad. But she was like a sister to me, and like any family member you would worry and try to be there for them when they need you. It was hard at times, but at the end of the day we would always end up staying in touch. It was a friendship for 29 years.

Dolores' legacy will be her music. She was so passionate about it. There are songs I hear today that we wrote over 20 years ago, and I see and hear people singing along with them. There are only a few artists who get to have maybe one song they are remembered by. Dolores has so many. It’s a great legacy.

This week Dolores’ mother Eileen and family expressed their heartfelt thanks to the people of Limerick for their love and support since their tragic loss.

Speaking for the first time since the singer’s untimely death, Eileen O’Riordan and her family told the Limerick Leader that the outpouring of tributes, prayers and kind sentiments from across the world, and particularly from the people of Dolores’ home county and city, has been “a great source of comfort” to them.

“We want to thank all the people of Limerick who have remembered Dolores this week. The people who queued to sign the book of condolence - some of them standing in the rain - it has meant a huge amount to us and has been a great source of comfort,” Eileen and her family said.

Dolores is predeceased by her father Terence and is very deeply regretted by her mother Eileen, children Taylor, Molly and Dakota, their father Don, brothers Terence, Brendan, Donal, Joseph and PJ, and sister Angela, brother-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, all other relatives and a large circle of friends.

«Creo que después de la muerte regresaré como un ángel protector. Me gustaría guiar a la gente o proteger a las personas que pasan por experiencias similares en la vida, susurrar en su oído y darles consejos sobre cómo lidiar con las cosas». Así se despidió Dolores O’Riordan en una entrevista de 2014, en la que también profetizó que no llegaría a cumplir los cincuenta. Aquellas palabras que pasaron desapercibidas hace cuatro años hoy se leen con desgarro, con la rabia del que sabe que algo más se pudo haber hecho para evitar el triste final de la cantante de los Cranberries. Ya nunca volveremos a escuchar su voz única e inimitable, ni tampoco podremos saber cuáles eran sus consejos para batallar con algo tan terrible como las secuelas del abuso sexual, una experiencia que sin duda marcó su infancia, y que dejó unas huellas, un dolor que quizá nunca pudo superar.

Dolores nació en el seno de una familia curtida en tragedias. Cuando llegó a este mundo, el 6 de septiembre de 1971 (en Ballybricken, una localidad de gran tradición gaélica del condado irlandés de Limmerick), dos de sus hermanos mayores ya habían fallecido prematuramente, y su padre estaba postrado en una silla de ruedas tras un accidente de tráfico sufrido tres años atrás.

Tortura en silencio
Cuando tenía ocho años, un vecino de confianza de su misma urbanización, amigo de sus padres, empezó a abusar de ella. Y como tantas otras víctimas sufrió esa tortura en silencio durante semanas, meses, e incluso años. Hasta que la pesadilla terminó un buen día de 1983, al poco de cumplir los doce.


En su adolescencia fue una chica de pocos amigos, muy introvertida, que lucía un look desafiante con botas Doc Martens y pelo corto. Esa estética fue precisamente una de las cosas que llamó la atención de sus compañeros de Cranberries, cuando acudió a una audición en la que buscaban nuevo cantante. Su talento vocal hizo el resto, y en 1993 debutaban oficialmente con «Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We?», disco que los lanzó al estrellato. Un éxito que dos años después fue ampliamente superado por «No need to argue», cuya tarjeta de presentación fue el inolvidable single «Zombie».

Un gran futuro esperaba a The Cranberries, pero los miembros del grupo pronto empezaron a darse cuenta de que Dolores era una mujer inestable. Anorexia, crisis nerviosas, adicción al alcohol, depresión, altercados y pensamientos suicidas persiguieron a la cantante durante toda las giras de la banda, en una espiral que ella siempre achacó a los abusos que sufrió de niña. De hecho, mucho tiempo antes de hacer público su pasado ya escribió canciones como «Fee Fi Fo» (del álbum «Bury the Hatchet», 1999) donde hablaba explícitamente sobre el tema. Pero no fue hasta 2013 cuando decidió contarlo en una entrevista. «Siento que me he quitado un gran peso de encima, y que me va a ayudar mucho abrirme y confesárselo a toda la gente que compró mis álbumes y que me quiere», dijo tras relatar su experiencia animada por sus tres hijos.

Ese mismo año, sin embargo, intentó suicidarse con una sobredosis de pastillas. Sólo unos meses después, ya en 2014, su marido Don Burton (que había sido manager de Duran Duran) le pidió el divorcio. Y 2015 no fue mejor: fue cuando los médicos llegaron a la conclusión de que sufría trastorno bipolar, dejándola sin certezas acerca del verdadero origen de sus problemas mentales.

El pasado lunes, la artista irlandesa estaba en Londres para grabar la voz de una versión de «Zombie» a cargo del grupo Bad Wolves. Pero no llegó a la grabación. Ahora se esperan los resultados de la autopsia, que podrían tardar «meses» en llegar. Mientras, por la red ya circulan rumores de que habría muerto por envenenamiento intencional con fentanilo, un analgésico que puede ser cincuenta veces más fuerte que la heroína. Son rumores poco fiables por ahora. Pero por desgracia, terriblemente verosímiles.

Olé Koretsky y Dolores O'Riordan eran pareja y compañeros de grupo. Además de The Cranberries, la cantante formaba parte de la banda D.A.R.K, donde tocaba con Koretsky, su novio, y Andy Rourke.

El pasado lunes, la noticia de la repentina muerte de la cantante mientras se encontraba en el estudio de grabación, cayó como un jarro de agua fría para los fans. En apenas unos días, las ventas de los discos de O'Riordan con The Cranberries se dispararon un 900.000 por ciento.

Después de que numerosos artistas publicasen imágenes y textos homenajeando a la cantante, ahora ha sido su pareja Ole Koretsky quien ha querido despedirse de ella con un emotivo mensaje:

"Mi amiga, compañera, y el amor de mi vida se ha ido. Mi corazón está roto y es irreparable. Dolores es hermosa. Su arte es hermoso. Su familia es hermosa. La energía de ella sigue irradiando es innegable. Estoy perdido. La extraño mucho. Continuaré tropezando con este planeta por un tiempo sabiendo que no hay lugar real para mí aquí ahora", recoge parte del extenso mensaje que se ha publicado en la página oficial de su banda D.A.R.K.

La iglesia de San José en el condado irlandés de Limerick ha abierto una capilla ardiente para que los ciudadanos puedan despedirse de la líder del grupo The Cranberries, Dolores O'Riordan, fallecida el pasado lunes a los 46 años.

Ese templo acoge desde las 12.30 GMT el féretro con los restos mortales de O'Riordan, para que sus seguidores pudieran rendir tributo a la artista irlandesa, cuyo cuerpo sin vida fue hallado en un hotel de la capital británica. La madre de O'Riordan y sus cinco hermanos acompañaron el féretro hasta la iglesia, donde el obispo Brendan Leahy los esperaba.

Está previsto que el funeral de O'Riordan tenga lugar el próximo martes en su pueblo natal de Ballybricken, en el mismo condado de Limerick. La muerte de la cantante ha causado gran conmoción en Irlanda, donde se la recuerda como la "voz de toda una generación" y como un icono mundial de la música en la década de los 90 del siglo XX.

La artista tenía tres hijos con el representante del grupo británico Duran Duran, Don Burton, de quien se separó en 2014 tras 20 años de matrimonio. Las autoridades forenses del Reino Unido han efectuado "varias pruebas" para determinar las causas de su muerte aunque los resultados no se conocerán hasta dentro de unos meses.

Según informó el lunes su representante, O'Riordan se encontraba en Londres para participar en "una breve sesión de grabación" el día siguiente, cuando tenía previsto poner su voz a una versión del conocido tema de The Cranberries "Zombie", interpretada por la banda de rock estadounidense Bad Wolves.

The Cranberries frontwoman Dolores O'Riordan was in London to discuss plans for the band's upcoming studio album when she died, her publicist has confirmed.

In a statement, the publicist said: "Whilst the primary purpose of Dolores's trip to London last Sunday evening was for a studio mixing session on Monday and Tuesday with Martin 'Youth' Glover on a recently recorded D.A.R.K. album, it has emerged that while in London she was also due to meet with The Cranberries record label, BMG to discuss plans for the release of a new Cranberries studio album that she had been working on with the band in recent months."

Aweek last Wednesday she emailed: "Love to meet up." I was going to go down to Limerick and have lunch with her later this month. That lunch will never happen now.

Heartbreaking to imagine Dolores O'Riordan's short, brilliant life is truly over. Heartbreaking to think that she is gone forever, this beautiful young woman with more talent in her little finger than a dozen Beyonces, this voice of a generation who could sing like an angel with a damaged wing soaring over Mount Olympus.

This forever lost soul, who was finding her way back after maybe wandering off the path in life, as we all do sometimes.

"I'm happy in Limerick now," she emailed a week last Wednesday. I was happy for her because I loved her and because I knew she had been through a personal hell over the last decade. So Dolores, more than anyone perhaps, deserved happiness. She had her troubles. They were well documented. She was human, just like the rest of us. We were friends for almost 17 years. Whenever she wanted to confess something to the world about herself, however shocking, I was her confessor in the Sunday Independent. I would have helped her any way I could. Sometimes, sadly, it was like that Elvis Presley line from Heartbreak Hotel: 'They been so long on Lonely Street, they'll never get back'. We talked via email during the last week of her life. She said she needed to have goals to look forward to and how she was feeling a lot better now. She said she had stopped looking back. It was great to talk to her.

Whenever I emailed her, she would reply, sometimes within the hour, to say that things were going positively in her life and that her counsellor thought she was making great progress. I was absolutely delighted for her. "Making music and looking forward is important," she said. "Lots of love. Dolores x".

"I have to stay positive and healthy," she said cheerily, adding that she was going to go for a swim in Limerick. "Keeping up the exercise is important.

"Keep in touch love. Much love! Dolores." She said that she would pass on my love to her mother.


The superstar who, as The Guardian put it, spent most of her adult life seeking a balance between depression and anorexia, was found dead at the Hilton hotel in Park Lane, London, last Monday morning. She was 46. Less than three decades earlier, her life changed when at the age of 18, she got a job with a Limerick group called The Cranberry Saw Us. She sang a version of a song she had written, a plaintive piece de resistance called Linger. The song, released in 1993 with the renamed Cranberries, became a giant hit globally, remaining in the Billboard Hot 100 in America for 24 weeks.

There was no one quite like her. Nor will there be again. One of her earliest memories was being about five at school in Limerick when the headmistress took her out of the class and up into the sixth class where the 12-year-old girls were. She sat Dolores up on the teacher's desk and told her to sing for them. The five-year-old loved it - singing was something she had "that could win people over". That much is true of Dolores, a bona fide genius who could stand on a stage and win over any crowd, anywhere in the world. Lady Diana attended one of Dolores's concerts in September 1995, in Modena, Italy. She was in tears by the end of Dolores's heart-rending performance of Ave Maria with Pavarotti. Diana later explained to Dolores that the reason she cried earlier at her performance was because her mother Frances loved Ave Maria.

Like Lady Di, Lady Dolores died before her time, Like Lady Di, Lady Dolores's sorrows weren't a secret from the world, her troubles known to her millions of fans.

Dolores O'Riordan's wounds weren't visible on her elfin-like body but they were deeper and more painful than anything that bleeds. Mental pain - the constant rattle in the brain - is harder to bear than physical pain. Dolores knew that better than most, after all she had been through in her life. You didn't need to be Freud to see that her heart possessed more scar tissue than positive life experience. Elizabeth Wurtzel wrote in Prozac Nation that "a human being can survive almost anything as long as she sees the end in sight. But depression is so insidious, and it compounds daily, that it is impossible to ever see the end".

In amongst the loneliness, and the moments of depression that maybe compounded daily, I would like to think that Dolores O'Riordan always believed that there was lots of hope for her (she had great support from her mother Eileen and her brother PJ) and that the future was never less than bright. Hence one of the last emails she sent to me, saying: "I'm happy in Limerick now."

Born on September 6, 1971, Dolores Mary Eileen O'Riordan was the youngest of seven children. From the age of eight, Dolores endured years of rape and sexual molestation by a person known to her family in the Limerick area. It is hard to even begin to fathom the effect, both emotional and psychological, this would have had on her. When people toss out phrases like "Dolores was dealing with her demons", they should try to understand the hellish reality of what she actually went through as a young child: from the age of eight to 12, she was raped.

"For four years, when I was a little girl, I was sexually abused. I was only a kid," Dolores told me in the Sunday Independent's LIFE magazine in October 2013 at her then home with her husband Don Burton and their children in Abington, Malahide.

How could Dolores ever be normal again after those experiences as a child, her innocence robbed from her in the most evil way? The dirty secret the child-Dolores buried inside her for most of her adult life. It came out in nervous breakdowns, in depression, in suicidal thoughts (there was an attempt to take her life in 2013), in panic attacks, in mania, in anorexia.

In Rome at Christmas 2013, (she was in the Eternal City to sing at the Vatican for the Pope and took me with her) Dolores told me she had Googled anorexia and "studied" the condition. She found out it was a common pathology that develops later on in life. "So I was putting on this charade, this perfect face. I had anorexia, then depression, a breakdown."

I told her that anorexia was a form of suicide: you want to make yourself disappear.

"I knew why," she said in reply. "I knew why I hated myself. I knew why I loathed myself. I knew why I wanted to make myself disappear. It was something that I noticed manifested itself in my behaviour and the pathologies I began to develop in my early adult life, such as my eating disorder, depression and eventually the breakdowns. I think I am getting stronger for sure. But I'll always be a bit of a train wreck. Nobody's perfect. Those people who pretend they are perfect aren't perfect."

Three months prior to that, in the summer of 2013, she had told me in an interview with the Sunday Independent's Living magazine: "I tried to overdose last year. I suppose I am meant to stay here for the kids. It is just about acknowledgement for me now - not revenge. I'm not that type but it will free me to go into group therapy as I go on with my life and I can be a better and stronger mother."

Her father Terence had a bad bike accident in 1968, three years before Dolores was born, "which left him invalided with permanent brain damage", and he "was never the same again". He died in November 25, 2011, at home in Ballybricken, Co Limerick, after having been ill with cancer for seven years. Dolores knew that she might see the man who abused her at the funeral in Limerick. "I had nightmares for a year before my father's death about meeting him," she said, referring to the man who raped her. At the funeral, he "came over and cried and said: 'Sorry'."

"My father would have killed him [the abuser] had my poor father not been 'retarded'," she told me.

You could argue that when her marriage to six-foot-plus Don Burton - whom she married in virtually her knickers in Holy Cross Abbey outside Tipperary in 1994 - ended in mid-2014 after over 20 years, Dolores lost her protector against the world; and that Dolores's life unravelled out of control from there on. (I always liked Don. I always thought he was great, even essential, for Dolores. She needed him as much as a father figure as a husband in her life.) After the separation, the children lived with Don in Canada while Dolores bounced around the world, seeking sanctuary but sadly never truly finding it.

In November, 2014, she was arrested on an Aer Lingus plane at Shannon Airport after a troubling incident on flight EI-110.

Ten days after the incident, I got a phone call from Dolores to meet her at a house she was staying in on the Adare Manor estate. It was the worst I had ever seen her. She was clearly ill, clearly in need of urgent help. She was distressed and disorientated. She and I recorded a video of our interview. Her speech was so rambling and her eyes so full of mania that we decided not to use it.

When I suggested to Dolores that dreadful day in Adare that she should go to see someone, she replied, irritated: "Sure, I am a counsellor. Aren't I counselling the world? Aren't I after healing billions of people around the world? I talk to myself. I talk to myself in the mirror."

When I asked her what she said to herself, she answered: "That it is not your fault. And I love you. Be nice to yourself. And slow down. Because I am not going to live that long. I'm 43. If I see 50, I'll be happy," said Dolores, who was 46 when she died last Monday. "I mean that. People look at you and see a product. They don't see a soul, but an empty hole."

I was hugely concerned about her mental health. I also genuinely feared for her life.

A month later, two weeks before Christmas, I got another phone call from Dolores, asking this time to come and visit her in hospital. It was a typically surreal day. I visited her with two members of her new band, Jetlag NYC - bassist Andy Rourke (formerly of the Smiths) and DJ Ole Koretsky, with whom she had developed a romantic relationship. She played her guitar on the bed and showed me a picture she had painted. We then got a taxi to my house where we put REM on the CD player and had a bit of a bop with Ole. We all went to dinner in Locks in Portobello until midnight before Dolores went back to hospital.

I gave her a Christmas present of a book of John Lennon's drawings. I wrote in it: ''Merry Xmas Dollie, the war is over.''

Dollie's internal war was just beginning, it transpired. I knew she couldn't go on like she was. It was shocking and sad in the extreme to see her go downhill like this - even more shocking now that she seemed to be turning her life around finally - because, once upon a time, Dolores O'Riordan, despite her troubles, was one of the coolest, the wittiest, the warmest girls on terra firma...

Cut to Milan, 2003:

The Dr Martens-shod superstar from Limerick is in the sanctuary of her own dressing room - a world of scented candles, sumptuous cushions and coming colours. It is in here that Dolores disappears.

Before a show, she has a routine of reiki, massage and yoga. However, beneath all that Eastern calm, Dolores is desperately missing her two children. She's chartering a private jet to be home for her son Taylor's birthday on Saturday. Thirty thousand euro. Worth every cent. Giant balloons are being inflated and clowns hired. "He'll never be five again. I don't care about the money," she says. "I'm a mother more than I'm a rock star." She adds that she wants to try acting next year. Guitarist Noel Hogan says he was running the London Marathon in April.

"And I..." begins his brother, Cranberries bassist Mike, "...I'm going to have another sex change next year."

"I can just imagine you in a wig and women's underwear!" says drummer Fergal Lawler.

Dolores doesn't have to imagine. She can recall the early days of the Cranberries when the Hogan brothers would break into her room, liberally applying her make-up before helping themselves to their singer's undergarments.

Like two Gaelic Danny La Rues, Dolores recalls, Noel and Mike would then appear on the tour bus imitating the two girls, young Dolores and her good friend Brefni.

"They used to bust my bras and knickers all the time!" Dolores says.

Dolores remembers the early days of the Cranberries when she was dating ("nothing serious") Liam O Maonlai of the Hothouse Flowers, and the times the unknown Limerick quartet played the support slots to the then hugely popular Dublin band. Starving, the male members of the Cranberries would pester Dolores into getting food from her boyfriend's band's dressing room. "The Hothouse Flowers have very nice cheese," Mike, Noel, and Fergal would say. "Get us some!"

"Leave me alone!" she would reply. "I'm not scoring cheese off my boyfriend for you!"

"We were the bummer opening act," Fergal remembers. "We had nothing. No food. No drink. No prospects. And no cheese!"

Cut to Howth, 2007:

High up on the hill of Howth, in a sprawling mansion fit for an iconic rock star, Dolores tosses the salad while husband Don watches over the steaks and jumbo prawns on the grill in the Edenic splendour of their garden.

Her mother Eileen has two-year-old Dakota in her arms. Dakoka's big sister, six-year-old Molly, is watching Peppa Pig on the television. Dolores brings me into one of the big bedrooms where 10-year-old Taylor is playing Star Wars on his computer. She puts on the Darth Vader mask and walks around the room, pretending to be the former Jedi Knight who turned to the dark side.

Later that night, Dolores takes me into her and Don's bedroom, where Molly is tucked up in bed, refusing to go to the dark side. She wants the light left on. Dakota has long since gone to her bed, after an exhausting day in the garden.

Coming in from the barbecue, Don, 10 years Dolores's senior, brings the surf 'n' turf into the dining room, while his wife dutifully pours the wine. "When you're famous so young, become a millionaire overnight, people think you're going to crash and burn and be such a mess. I have my kids and Don," she says, pouring yet more red, red wine. "Before, if the gig didn't go too well, I'd be depressed; and if the press wrote something critical of me, I'd be depressed. You lose all sense of yourself if you take yourself that seriously. I'm completely calm now. I meditate a lot and I have my family."

Back during her low of 1995-96, when she was suffering from "serious depression", Dolores had "out-of-control anxiety attacks. I wasn't sleeping. I wasn't eating properly".

Dolores ate like a horse that night. She couldn't get the prawns into her mouth quick enough.

In April, 2014, Dolores and the true rock in her life, her mother Eileen, took me for lunch at the Bake House Bistro in Bruff, Co Limerick.

"They just saw me as a commodity, as a cash cow," Dolores said of her experiences in the music industry, which made her extraordinarily wealthy, but sucked the blood out of her, like a particularly ferocious vampire. "I was very, very lonely."

Eileen added: "I remember my own mother - who was 92 when she died in 1997 - saying to Dolores one morning: 'You'd have been better off if you'd kept your little job in Cassidy's in Limerick'."

"I worked there part-time when I was in fifth and sixth year," remembered the multi-millionaire singer. Courtesy of her group, the Cranberries, selling over 40 million records worldwide, Dolores had plenty of money - not that the wealth mattered. "Because," as Sylvia Plath wrote in The Bell Jar of depression, "whenever I sat - on the beach or at a street cafe in Paris - I would be sitting under the same glass bell jar, stewing in my own sour air".

Again, it wasn't always thus for young O'Riordan.

The path to fame is not always an easy one. Those whom the gods wish to destroy are granted fame and fortune at a dangerously early age, they say. And the Cranberries were but babies. They survived where others before them had perished.

"When you become famous very young - when you become a millionaire almost overnight - people expect you to be screwed up," Dolores told me in Milan 15 years ago. "So it makes you more determined to keep your life together. It makes you more determined to make the simple things in life right."

Like?

"Like a good marriage. Having children," she answered. "Being a good parent. Keep your marriage together. Staying loyal, and seeing the big picture."

Later that night, while Dolores held 20,000 Italians in thrall for two hours, her devoted husband Don took me onto the side of the stage where he gushed with the praise of the truly in love: "That's my wife! And she's the greatest singer in the world!"

I would like to think I did my best as a friend to protect her in life.

And so I hope in death this tribute will show the world the real person Dolores O'Riordan was - and more than that, how Dolores truly felt she was getting to a place of happiness and peace before her untimely passing.

Hence, to repeat, one of the last emails she sent me said: "I'm happy in Limerick now."

Whatever about her beloved Limerick, the divine Dolores is at peace now in heaven.

She will linger, eternally.

In the week since her death, the people of Limerick got plenty of time to celebrate the life and mourn the passing of Dolores O’Riordan, their international rock star.

Thousands queued in inclement weather to pay their respects when she lay in public repose on two successive days. Traffic management plans were put in place. Books of condolences were filled and replaced by the council. The Taoiseach signed one of them. The President visited her family and tendered his sympathies.

Today, that public phase ended.

What happened next was not so much a funeral as an enfolding, with the small rural community of Ballybricken – where Dolores felt most at home and the place to which she always returned – coming together to sadly reclaim and bury of one of their own. She may have been globally famous, but to them, she was down to earth Dolores – Eileen’s daughter, one of the O’Riordans.

It was from this East Limerick townland that the schoolgirl singer determined she would, one day, conquer the world with her voice and her music. Lots of young girls have that same dream. Dolores O’Riordan, a force of nature, achieved it.

Time and opportunity
Her sudden death at the young age of 46 shocked the legions of Cranberries fans everywhere, but it hit particularly hard in Limerick. The O’Riordan family recognised this and generously allowed local people the time and opportunity to pay their tributes to the woman who always remained true to her county roots, despite her fame and fortune.

So when the time came for her funeral today, the many who turned out in her honour on Sunday and Monday stayed away from the tiny parish church of Saint Ailbe, where Dolores once played the organ and sang in the choir.

They had paid their respects.

The funeral of this rock star was as far away from rock and roll as you can get
So there was no big crowd on the bend in the road where the church sits under the shelter of Grady’s Hill, not far from the house where Dolores was born. Nor was there a celebrity parade through the churchyard gates. There may have been satellite news vans parked nearby, journalists scanning the Mass-goers and tiered rows of photographers on aluminium stepladders packed behind the low stone wall opposite, but there would be no big send-off to satisfy the national and international media.

Just like her mother, Dolores O’Riordan had a strong faith. Her funeral Mass, which was very traditional, reflected this. Screen out the cameras, the microphones and the notebooks and what was left was an ordinary, reflective and respectful Irish goodbye.

The funeral of this rock star was as far away from rock and roll as you can get.

The local community closed protectively around the family. Lads from the Ballybricken/Bohermore GAA club provided stewarding along the roads. Local houses opened their driveways so people could park. Farmers opened fields in case there was an overflow.

There are only 200 seats in the old church. It is very simply decorated: wooden beams in the vaulted roof and a small alter in front of a crucifix, with a statue of the Sacred Heart on one side and the Blessed Virgin on the other.

There were flowers, white flowers, everywhere. They spelled out the name “Dolores” beside her coffin. Wreaths of white roses and carnations were on the deep window sills, a white candle set in each one, the flames flickering through the stained glass.

There was a frisson among the photographers when Ali Hewson, wife of U2’s Bono, arrived. The band is in America and she was representing them.

President Higgins was represented by his Aide-de-Camp Louise Conlon and Taoiseach Leo Varadkar by his ADC, Caroline Burke.

It was lovely, lovely, wasn’t it really?' said one woman to her friend. 'It was'
The cameras went into overdrive again when the family arrived – Dolores’s mother Eileen; her children – Taylor (20), Molly (16) and Dakota (12), stepson Donny (26) and Don Burton, their father. Her sister, Angela and brothers Terence, Brendan, Donal, Joseph and PJ and their children. And once more when her bandmates entered the church, and when Olé Koretsky, Dolores’s boyfriend, who is in the band D.A.R.K., hurried inside.

Full to capacity
There was silence for a little while as the congregation settled, the church full to capacity with the requisite couple of elderly men just about clinging to the outside edge of the porch with their elbows.

Then music began, relayed outside on a public address system.

It’s Dolores. The unmistakable voice of Dolores. Ave Maria rings out over the winter-bare trees and surrounding pasture. It’s haunting and it’s beautiful. And then Luciano Pavarotti, and his tenor tones floating across to Grady’s Hill.

The two stars sang the hymn together at a charity concert in 1995. Princess Diana was in the audience and she said it brought tears to her eyes.

And so it did again today. Not in Modena, Italy, but in Ballybricken, Limerick.

Canon Liam McNamara, an old family friend, was chief celebrant of the Mass, with Father James Walton PP, Ballybricken & Bohermore; Archbishop Kieran O’Reilly, Archbishop of Cashel & Emly, and Archbishop Emeritus Dermot Clifford concelebrating.

Dolores, said Canon McNamara, had a voice of gold. She had a heart of gold too. He told how it was “impossible” to say how many people Dolores “rescued from darkness and sadness in their lives”.

Now, he said, she is singing in the heavenly choirs.

Personal homily
It was a warm and personal homily. During the communion reflection, the voice of a young Dolores O’Riordan filled the church again. This time, it was Panis Angelicus, beautifully performed. Who wouldn’t be moved?

There was no eulogy before the end. The service said all that needed to be said and all that needed to be done.

As the coffin was brought from the church, a familiar chorus started quietly and grew in intensity. When You Are Gone, one of the band’s best-known songs and a poignant reminder of Dolores’s unique vocal talent, played her out as the congregation applauded.

Four pipers from the Limerick Pipe Band, two of them her nephews, played as the coffin was carried to the hearse, the singer’s ex-husband Don and his son Donny among the bearers.

There was a whirring sound in the distance, like agricultural machinery in one of the fields. But it wasn’t. It was a drone, photographing the scene.

Dolores O’Riordan was buried in nearby Caherelly cemetery, next to her father Terence.

People stood around talking afterwards. Just like any ordinary funeral.

“It was lovely, lovely, wasn’t it really?” said one woman to her friend.

“It was. Really lovely.”

A few words from Noel, Mike & Ferg.

Firstly we would like to thank everyone for their support and kind words over the past few weeks. As you can imagine this has been a very sad and difficult time, not only for us, but also for Dolores' family. Reading though the messages you all sent has been amazing. To see how much of a positive impact Dolores had on people's lives is so lovely and gives some comfort at this very difficult time.

A lot of people have been asking what does the future hold for the band?

We have been discussing this over the past few days.

Over the past few months, the writing process for a new Cranberries album had begun with a lot of new songs already quite well developed. Dolores had already recorded vocals on these tracks so we have decided to finish them as it is what she would have wanted. We don’t know how many tracks will make the final album right now but it was Dolores' wish that we complete the recording of the album and release it so we going to do just that in the coming months.

As well as finishing the new album there are a few more Cranberries projects that were already underway. We will look at each as time permits.

Again, thank you all for your support. We will try our best to keep you all up to date on things as they unfold.

AS she prepares to attend her daughter’s Month’s Mind Mass this weekend, Eileen O’Riordan has spoken of how she feels the presence of her daughter Dolores with her all the time, helping her in her time of grief.

“I talk to her all time. I feel she is there all the time - helping me. I give out to her sometimes too,” said Eileen this Wednesday of her beloved daughter, the iconic rockstar Dolores O’Riordan.

Speaking exclusively to the Leader from her Ballybricken home, Eileen told of how Dolores’ three children Taylor, 20, Molly, 17, and 12-year-old Dakota are slowly coming to terms with the death of their doting mother, having returned to Canada where they live.

“The girls are doing OK but Taylor is understandably finding it very hard. They are moving house - too many memories,” she explained.

Three weeks after the funeral of The Cranberries frontwoman, flowers, sent by fans from across the world through the floral delivery network Interflora, continue to be delivered to the grave of the 46-year-old singer who died suddenly on January 15 in her London hotel room.

Eileen continues her daily routine of going to Mass every day in the small parish church of St Ailbe’s in Ballybricken but, now, sadly, she also makes the lonely journey to Dolores’ graveside at Caherelly Cemetery where Eileen’s husband Terence was laid to rest in 2011.
 
“I go up quite often. I have to go up this evening now and clean it for the weekend because the frost got all the flowers. There are flowers still coming - the fans abroad are sending flowers by Interflora. Some of them are being delivered to the grave.”

In an acknowledgment published on page two, the O’Riordan family have expressed their “heartfelt thanks for the many expressions of sympathies and kindness following our loss at this sad time.

“A sincere thanks to all who attended her funeral and offered their support, kindness and sympathy over the past month.”

“We are getting hundreds of letters - I didn’t look at them yet,” said Eileen, her voice cracking.

“I have a shoebox of them here. They are still coming in the post from all over the world. A letter came from Boston simply saying, Eileen O’Riordan, Limerick. There was no mention of Ireland or anything just Limerick.”

The family, she said, are coping “good enough” as they are being kept busy with the huge amount of support they are getting from the close-knit local community as well as the wider global fanbase Dolores had attracted over the years.

“There is an awful lot happening still with the neighbours calling and letters coming,” Eileen explained.

Over the past two decades Eileen has been a regular visitor to Canada to see her grandchildren.

“They are like my own children,” she pointed out. “Both girls are like Dolores and sing. Dolores was recording with Taylor two weeks before she died - he has a great voice. They had the studio and the whole lot ready but poor Taylor got a very bad sore throat problem and he couldn’t do it. It’s a pity - I suppose it wasn’t meant to be. They had to get their dog put down last Friday which has added to their pain.”

With many column inches being devoted to Dolores funeral  in local, national and global media - the Leader’s Norma Prendiville described how it was all done simply, “with great dignity and with no fancy trappings”, Eileen this week praised the media for the respect they showed her family at the funeral.

“Going to concerts with Dolores you would often have cameras in your face. I was probably expecting something like that but everyone was very good.

“I was supposed to wait around and meet everyone but when I saw the children upset I just got them into the car - they would always come first.”

Dolores is predeceased by her father Terence and is very deeply regretted by her mother Eileen, children Taylor, Molly and Dakota, their father Don, brothers Terence, Brendan, Donal, Joseph and PJ, and sister Angela, brother-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, all other relatives and a large circle of friends. Dolores’ Month’s Mind Mass will be offered this Saturday in Ballybricken church at 7.30pm with refreshments afterwards in Kirby’s.

Dolores’ family offers thanks for support in past month

We the family of the late Dolores O’Riordan R.I.P. would like to express our sincere and heartfelt thanks for the many expressions of sympathies and kindness following our loss at this sad time. A sincere thanks to all who attended her funeral and offered their support, kindness and sympathy over the past month.

To all who attended Limerick City Hall and St. Joseph’s Church to sign the Books of Condolences and pay their respects.

To the many thousands of sympathisers and fans who sent mass cards, flowers and letters of sympathy.

To the Cranberries, Noel, Mike, Fergal, their families, the band’s crew, Nollaig, and representatives from the Irish Music Industry.

Special thanks to President Michael D. Higgins, his Aide-de-Camp Louise Conlon and Aide-de-Camp to AnTaoiseach Caroline Burke. Most Rev. Kieran O’Reilly Archbishop of Cashel &Emly. Archbishop Emeritus Dermot Clifford. Most Rev. Brendan Leahy Bishop of Limerick, Canon Liam MacNamara, Chief Celebrant of the Funeral Mass. Fr. James Walton, P.P. Ballybricken Bohermore, Reverend Fr. Oliver Plunkett and all at St.Joseph’s Church and to all the other priests who attended and offered consoling support.

Sincere thanks to the members of the Limerick Pipe Band and the Irish Chamber Orchestra, Mayor of Limerick, local representatives, Limerick City & County Council and the Gardai. A special word of thanks to Limerick’s Live 95fm for broadcasting the Mass and to all other media sources for their respectful coverage.

A special word of thanks to Cross’s Funeral Directors for their most compassionate and professional manner of handling of arrangements. Also to those who helped prepare Dolores’ final resting place.

To Ballybricken Bohermore G.A.A. Club and local parishioners who helped with Church preparations, to Anne for her lovely flowers, Caherelly N.S. and all who helped with parking, stewarding, roads and traffic management. Also to the residents of Ballyneety Village for their kind gestures.

As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our extended families and all our kind neighbours and friends for their continuing support and kindness.

Mass will be offered for all your intentions.

Dolores’ Month’s Mind Mass will be offered this Saturday 24th February 2018 in St. Ailbe’s Church, Ballybricken at 7.30pm.

This month marks the 25th anniversary of the release of our debut album “Everybody Else is doing it so why can’t we”. In recent weeks we have had a number of media enquiries asking if we were planning anything to commemorate this milestone.

We can confirm that since last summer the band had been working with Universal Music on the creation of a very special 25th anniversary edition of the album, a newly re mastered version with previously unreleased material of ours as well as other bonus material from the era of our debut album. We had planned to release this special edition this month to coincide with the 25th anniversary. However, given Dolores’ passing in January we put the entire project on hold.

In recent weeks we revisited this. After much consideration we have decided to finish what we started. We thought about it and decided that as this is something that we started as a band, with Dolores, we should push ahead and finish it. So that’s the plan, to finish the project and get the special 25th anniversary edition album out later this year.

We will also be completing the recording of a new studio album as previously announced, which we also started last year and for which Dolores had already recorded the vocals. All going well we hope to have this new album finished and out early next year.

We will keep you all up to date as things progress.
Noel, Mike and Ferg

Tras presentar Money + Love, un doble videoclip en forma de película, Arcade Fire sigue promocionando su último disco, Everything Now, con la gira Infinite Content Tour.

Uno de los conciertos más especiales ha sido en Dublín, donde Win Butler y el resto de componentes de la banda rindieron un emotivo homenaje a Dolores O'Riordan, cantante de The Cranberries fallecida en el mes de enero.

En el país natal de la artista, Irlanda, Arcade Fire interpretó el clásico Linger, del primer álbum del grupo de O'Riordan, Everybody Else Is Doing It So Why Not Can We?. Sin duda, tal y como puede verse en las imágenes que han compartido los asistentes, el momento fue emocionante y muy aplaudido.

The Cranberries are in studio this week to record the next (and possibly final?) Cranberries album. These last 24 hours, they published a few photos on their Instagram account.
   
Let’s note the band was in studio last week as well (or maybe just Noel?), at the famous Abbey Road studios in London, to remaster the “Everybody Else…” album for the 25th Anniversary edition that should be released later this year.

This week, the three of them gathered at Kore Studios, in London too, to record a brand new Cranberries album. For those who are wondering how they’ll be dealing with vocals without Dolores, please keep in mind the last interview Noel Hogan gave to RollingStone: “I spoke to Dolores last Friday and she was great. We spoke about getting back to work – recording and new tracks we were working on. She sent some of those tracks to me by email on Sunday morning”, as well as the band’s recent statement: “we will also be completing the recording of a new studio album as previously announced, which we also started last year and for which Dolores had already recorded the vocals.“

Everyone can easily imagine how painful going through these tracks must be for the lads. Like many fans who are supporting them through social media, we’re sending love and courage to Noel, Mike and Fergal.

We love you guys, In It Together!

A month after The Cranberries have started recording their new album for which Dolores had already recorded vocals, it seems the band is currently putting the finishing touches and it should now be a matter of days before they’re done with this new record.

The recordings started on April 16th at Kore Studios, in London, where the band worked until May 4th.
Studio pics during this session interestingly show the use of a bass clarinet.

After a week break, the band came back one last time at Kore Studios on May 14th to add strings, and then moved on the following day to Stephen Street’s Bunker studio in the 13 studios complex in West London.

There, they were joined for a couple of days by Johanna Wiseley (Cranitch) who fans are familiar with as she’s been working with the band as backing singer/keyboard player on tour since 2012.

Johanna posted a picture on her Instagram account yesterday, stating that she had finished putting the backing vocals down, and confirmed on the occasion that this album should unsurprisingly be the Cranberries “final” album:

Although listening to this record will be very difficult for most of us, fans, we’re feeling very thankful to the band and their crew who are devoting themselves to giving life to Dolores’ last tracks, as they feel this is “what [She] would have wanted“.

Statement From The Cranberries

We would like to thank all of you for your ongoing support and to take this opportunity to update you on recent developments.

In 2017 we had begun to work on a new album of songs with Dolores. Working with our producer Stephen Street, we have recently completed the album and it is expected to be released in early 2019.


Late last year The Cranberries decided to compile a very special box set edition of our debut album ‘Everybody Else Is Doing It So Why Can’t We?’ The box set will feature many rare versions of Cranberries songs, demos, radio broadcasts, concert recordings as well as unseen band photographs and a long essay about The Cranberries early years. The box set will be released later this year.

Since Dolores’s untimely passing in January we have been inundated with requests for media interviews and requests to take part in numerous commemorative projects. Neither The Cranberries nor the O’Riordan family are in a position to respond to these requests or partake in any interviews or other projects. We would ask that you respect our wishes for privacy at this difficult time.

The inquest into Cranberries frontwoman Dolores O'Riordan is due to take place on her birthday next month, nine months after her sudden death.

The international star from Co Limerick was found dead in her hotel room at the Hilton in Park Lane, London, on the morning of January 15.

She was in the UK capital for a short recording session at the time.

An inquest was originally due to begin four days later, but was postponed until April 3 while the coroner awaited medical test results.

However, without explanation, the hearing was removed from the schedule with no new date set.

The Irish Independent can now reveal that the inquest will take place at Westminster Coroner's Court on Thursday, September 6.

It will fall on what would have been O'Riordan's 47th birthday.

A spokesperson from the coroner's office told the Irish Independent that her family have been informed of its findings.

"The family have been updated with all the information we have, but the inquest itself will be the place where information on her death will become available to the public domain," they said.

The Metropolitan Police said in January that they were not treating the Cranberries icon's death as suspicious.

She is survived by her three children, Taylor (20), Molly (16) and Dakota (12).

La cantante irlandesa Dolores O'Riordan, líder de la banda The Cranberries, murió el pasado 15 de enero al ahogarse en la bañera de su hotel en Londres cuando estaba ebria, según el informe forense presentado este jueves.La jueza forense Shirley Radcliffe, del tribunal londinense de Westminster, ha dicho al exponer sus conclusiones que la muerte a los 46 años de O'Riordan fue "un accidente", lo que ya determinó la Policía al investigar el caso. Radcliffe ha indicado como causa del fallecimiento el "ahogamiento por intoxicación etílica", después de que la autopsia del cuerpo de la artista demostrara que tenía altos niveles de alcohol en la sangre.Durante la investigación, la agente de policía Natalie Smart explicó que halló el cadáver de la cantante sumergido bajo el agua en la bañera de su habitación del hotel Hilton, donde se encontraron también varias botellas de champán. También había varias cajas de medicamentos de prescripción médica, pero los niveles de estos en la sangre de O'Riordan estaban dentro de los límites permitidos, al contrario que el grado de alcoholemia.

Dolores O'Riordan, una de las voces más distintivas de Irlanda, murió súbitamente durante una breve visita a Londres para participar en una sesión de grabación en la que pondría voz a una versión del conocido tema de The Cranberries Zombie interpretada por la banda de rock estadounidense Bad Wolves.El tribunal de Westminster empezó sus pesquisas el pasado 19 de enero, antes de que la cantante fuera enterrada en su pueblo natal de Limerick, entre la conmoción de toda Irlanda. La artista tenía tres hijos con el representante del grupo británico Duran Duran, Don Burton, de quien se había separado en 2014 tras 20 años de matrimonio.The Cranberries, con la carismática Dolores a la cabeza, saltó al estrellato internacional a principios de la década de 1990 con temas como Zombie, Dreams o Linger y llegó a vender más de 40 millones de discos en todo el mundo. O'Riordan es recordada en Irlanda como la "voz de toda una generación" y como un icono mundial de la música de los noventa.

Ahead of the 25th-anniversary reissue of EEIDI, rollingstone.com just published a new interview with guitarist Noel Hogan. He discusses the band’s early days as well as the upcoming final album with Dolores O’Riordan, “IN THE END” to be released early next year.

    So there’s a song called “In the End,” it’s the last song on the album, and it just kind of summed up the whole album and the band. Because it’s definitely the end of it for us. So we’ve called it that. In the End. – Noel Hogan

DAYS before the first anniversary of the death of her beloved daughter Dolores O’Riordan, the mother of The Cranberries lead singer says she finally realises “she’s not coming back”.

“It doesn’t feel like a year. It feels as if the funeral is just ending. I know now she is not coming back,” Eileen O’Riordan told the Limerick Leader this week ahead of the anniversary of Dolores’ tragic death on Tuesday.

The Ballybricken native was found dead in her bedroom at the London Hilton on Park Lane on January 15 last year. She was 46-years-old.

Two anniversary Masses will take place in Limerick to mark her untimely death.

A Mass will take place in St Ailbe’s Church in Ballybricken this Sunday, January 13 at 11am followed by anniversary Mass in St Joseph’s Church on O’Connell avenue in the city on Sunday, January 20 at 11.30am.

“They are both open to the public. We would love to see people there. We decided on the second Mass for people who wanted to go in Limerick city,” Eileen explained.

Reflecting on her first Christmas without Dolores, Eileen said she found Christmas Eve particularly poignant.

“Up to Christmas was hard enough but I was busy with the church,” said Eileen who is the Eucharistic Minister, reader, singer and sacristan at her local church in Ballybricken.

“On Christmas Eve I got everything ready and as soon as the crowd started to come then I just left,” explained Eileen.

She simply found it too difficult to attend the Mass.

“Katie, my granddaughter, Joseph’s daughter is a beautiful singer. She sings O Holy Night and Dolores used to sing that as well,” Eileen said of her reason to decide to attend Mass in the church on Christmas Day instead.

“I came back afterwards on Christmas Eve. I didn’t want to be listening to the singing. And if I was sad then I would be sad in front of the children. I went up to Joseph my son’s house.”

Eileen and her family had Christmas dinner at the Strand Hotel in the city. Her spirits were lifted on St Stephen’s Day with the arrival of Dolores’ eldest child Taylor from Canada.

“Taylor is still very sad, God help us. I think the first born are softer,” said his doting grandmother.

“He went back on Saturday. He’ll come back again in April please God. He likes Ireland. The girls will be on soon,” said Eileen of Dolores’ two daughters Molly, 17 and Dakota, 13.

Eileen has arranged for 4,000 memorial cards to be printed to remember Dolores on the first anniversary of her death.

“We have done them like a bookmark. They did it for me in Glenstal Abbey and it is very nice. I got around 4,000 of them to give out.

“Br Kevin in Glenstal did it for me. He’s an artist. He spent about a week doing it. There is a little verse to remember Dolores.”

The Cranberries lead singer died in a London hotel room by drowning due to alcohol intoxication, an inquest at Westminster Coroner’s Court heard last September.

The inquest heard she was found submerged in the bath in her room at the Park Lane Hilton hotel.

Eileen visited Dolores’ grave at the local cemetery over Christmas and was moved by the amount of well wishes that continue to pour in from fans around the globe.

“People are still leaving items there. There are three guitars there now I think. The flowers are lovely. I got a lunch box before Christmas and have put all the letters into it. We received a lot of cards at Christmas. People mean so well.”

Sometimes she momentarily forgets herself when she hears some news and goes to tell Dolores.

“For a split second I feel I must tell her….You have to keep going and make the best of it.”

Meanwhile, the University of Limerick announced this week that it is to confer a special posthumous honour on Dolores, which her family will receive.

The university will also confer band members of The Cranberries Noel Hogan, Mike Hogan and Fergal Lawler with honorary doctorates on Friday, January 18.

A Message from The Cranberries

In early 2017, the four of us got together to rehearse for the ‘Something Else’ Tour. During rehearsals, we discussed many times how great it would be to write and work on new material for a new album… The prospect of writing and working on new material for a new album was very exciting.

Over the following months the task of working on what would become ‘In The End’ began. By December 2017, Dolores had completed and recorded the vocals to final demo stage on the eleven songs which feature on this recording, and we had planned to go into the studio to complete the album in early 2018.

After Dolores' devastating and unexpected passing in January 2018, we took some time out and put all plans on hold. As time passed, we began to think about how we might best honour our close friend and bandmate. This was a very painful process. We remembered how Dolores had been so energised by the prospect of making this record and getting back out on the road to play the songs live, and realised that the most meaningful thing to do was to finish the album we had started with her. We felt that this is what she would want. We spoke with Dolores' family and they agreed.

It was a very emotional process for us. Knowing that we would never get to play these songs live made it even more difficult. There was also an overwhelming sense of finality knowing that this was the last time that we would be in the same studio together working on a Cranberries album.

We would like to take the chance to thank ours and Dolores’ family and friends and all those who worked with the band over the years. To our fans, who have stood by us for almost thirty years; thank you, without you, none of this would have been possible. It has been an incredible journey.

We dedicate this album to our dear friend and bandmate Dolores. She will always be with us in her music.

Noel Mike Fergal

To mark the first anniversary of Dolores’s passing The Cranberries will be releasing the first song from the new album ‘All Over Now’ on the 15th of January. :P

For the Cranberries it all changed on the January 15, 2018, when their charismatic lead singer Dolores O'Riordan died suddenly in what was described as a tragic accident. Dolores had drowned in a hotel bath after drinking heavily. She was 46.

Now the three surviving bandmates have announced that this April they are releasing the final songs they recorded together, on an album called "In The End".

Brothers Noel and Mike Hogan and Fergal Lawler say the singer was looking forward to releasing the new tracks and had been emailing material to them in the months leading up to her death. Clearly still mourning her - they tell me they keep thinking she might walk through the door of the studio - the album is dedicated to her memory.

The first single from the album, "All Over Now" is released on the anniversary of her death on Tuesday.

It is the last album The Cranberries will ever release. The band members say they feel lucky they had the material from Dolores before she died, and that the final album is the classic Cranberries sound. But to continue as a band without her they say, is unthinkable.

The album is out in April.

El grupo irlandés The Cranberries ha publicado «All Over Now» («Todo ha acabado ya»), el primer sencillo de su último disco de estudio, cuando se cumple un año de la muerte de su carismática cantante, Dolores O'Riordan.

«Teníamos un gran álbum y sabíamos que esto era lo correcto y lo mejor para poder honrar a Dolores», explican en un comunicado los otros tres componentes de la banda de Limerick, Fergal Lawler (batería), Mike Hogan (bajo) y Noel Hogan (guitarra).

Noel y Dolores escribieron los once temas de este último trabajo, que lleva por título «In The End» («Al final») y saldrá a la venta el próximo 26 de abril, y los grabaron en maquetas durante 2017. La versión final fue editada a partir de esas sesiones de grabación, en la que incorporaron la inconfundible voz de Dolores, quien falleció en Londres el 15 de enero de 2018 a los 46 años.

«Ha sido un proceso agridulce. A final de cada día, cuando acabábamos nuestras partes había una sensación de tristeza, al saber que Dolores no estaría al día siguiente para trabajar en las canciones», dijeron los músicos. Aseguraron que la líder de The Cranberries estaba «llena de energía» por la vuelta del grupo al estudio de grabación y la perspectiva de una nueva gira para tocar los temas en directo.

También confesaron que dudaron a la hora de concluir el disco, el octavo de su carrera, pues debían trabajar con maquetas y «teníamos miedo de destruir el legado de la banda haciendo un álbum que no estaba a la altura». No obstante, zanjaron, todos los temas son «tan buenos» que su publicación es el «mejor homenaje que podemos hacer a Dolores».

«Ha sido un proceso muy emocional para nosotros. Saber que nunca podremos tocar estas canciones en directo lo hizo aún más difícil. También había una abrumadora sensación de finalidad al saber que esta era la última vez que estaríamos juntos en el mismo estudio trabajando en un álbum de The Cranberries», prosiguieron.

Durante la madrugada del «blue monday» del año pasado, Dolores O’Riordan decidió darse un baño mientras se emborrachaba sola en su habitación de un hotel de Londres. Varias horas después, un empleado la encontró sumergida e inconsciente, pero cuando llegaron los servicios de emergencia ya era tarde. La cantante de The Cranberries había muerto a los 46 años de edad.

Esa mañana, el mundo del pop quedó paralizado y perplejo ante una noticia tan terrible como inesperada, que no tardó en desatar todo tipo de especulaciones relacionadas con las adiciones y los problemas psicológicos de la artista irlandesa. ¿Sobredosis? ¿Sucidio? Mientras tanto, sus compañeros de grupo trataban de digerir el golpe para enfrentarse a todo un dilema. Dolores había dejado grabadas las maquetas de voz para un nuevo disco, pero ya no sabían si debían seguir adelante con el proyecto. Después de darle muchas vueltas, decidieron que fuese la familia de su compañera quien tomase la decisión, y así es como un año después ha nacido «In the End», el canto de cisne de The Cranberries que se publicará el próximo 26 de abril.

—¿Presenció las sesiones de grabación de voz de Dolores?

—(Fergal Lawler, batería) No. Ella grabó la mayor parte de esas maquetas en Nueva York, mientras el resto descansábamos de la gira del disco «Something Else». Ella se aburría enseguida cuando no hacía nada, así que empezó a componer y componer, como siempre. Lo tenía todo en un disco duro, y el plan era reunirnos para escucharlo y empezar a ensayar. Ella estaba muy emocionada con la idea de hacer un nuevo disco.

—¿Cuándo escucharon las maquetas?

—Dos semanas después de que muriese. Al escucharlas dijimos: «¡Dios mío! ¡Pero si hay un disco entero ya hecho!». Entonces preguntamos a su familia si les parecería bien que lo terminásemos. Nos dijeron que les encantaría ver su trabajo terminado, y que sería el mejor homenaje que podríamos rendirle, así que nos pusimos manos a la obra con todas las ganas del mundo.

—Imagino que después de esa euforia inicial, el momento de trabajar con las voces de Dolores sería duro.

—Durísimo. Especialmente el primer día, fue realmente difícil arrancar. En un momento dado todos nos miramos y nos dijimos: «¿Cómo vamos a hacerlo?». Después de un rato lidiando con nuestros demonios, nos dimos cuenta de que lo único que teníamos que hacer era trabajar como lo hubiera hecho Dolores, dando el mil por cien. Poco a poco empezamos a concentrarnos en hacer las mejores canciones que pudiéramos.

—El disco trata sobre superar el pasado, lidiar con el presente.

—Estoy de acuerdo. Los dos últimos años de su vida, Dolores había estado esforzándose mucho por superar sus problemas mentales, quería vivir el momento, seguir hacia delante y ser una persona más fuerte. Al mismo tiempo, y esto es algo personal, estas canciones me recuerdan muchísimo al espíritu de nuestro primer disco.

—También habla sobre la soledad. ¿Era fácil estar de gira con ella?

—Tenía momentos en los que echaba terriblemente de menos su hogar. La vida de músico no era fácil para ella ni para nosotros. Es una forma muy extraña de vivir.

—¿Fue difícil leer tantas especulaciones sobre su muerte en la prensa?

—No leí las noticias, para ser sincero. Yo conocía la realidad, sabía que había sido un accidente. La verdad es que cuando me lo dieron fue un alivio. Siempre tuve la esperanza de que no lo hubiese hecho a propósito.

—¿Recuerda el momento en el que le dieron la noticia?

—Recuerdo que cuando me lo dijeron sufrí un enorme shock. Me llevó bastante tiempo salir de ese estado, y aún hoy hay momentos en los que no puedo creerme que ya no esté. A veces voy conduciendo y veo un sendero para caminar, y me veo paseando con ella. Le encantaba caminar. Ah... todavía se me hace extraño, muy extraño.

—La pregunta que todo fan se estará haciendo es: ¿sonará este disco algún día en directo?

—Ya hemos hablado de ello, porque lo cierto es que mucha gente nos ha dicho que le encantaría escuchar cómo sonaría. Pero no hay la menor posibilidad de que consideremos continuar sin Dolores. Antes de que ella muriese, acordamos que si alguna vez faltaba uno de nosotros, el grupo se disolvería porque ya nada sería igual. Jamás haríamos algo como lo que hizo Queen, por ejemplo. Buscar una sustituta para Dolores hubiera sido una total falta de respeto, para ella y para nosotros mismos. Y los fans de The Cranberries nunca nos lo perdonarían.

Charlamos por teléfono con Noel Hogan, guitarrista y compositor de The Cranberries, acerca de In the end, el que será el último disco de la banda irlandesa. Por momentos nos emocionamos al escuchar su voz entrecortada conforme se va llenando de recuerdos. Nos confiesa que ha sido muy difícil volver al estudio y terminar este álbum casi premonitorio en algunas de las canciones que Dolores O'Riordan les dejó escritas.


Ha pasado algo más de un año, pero la herida no termina de cicatrizar. Dolores desapareció repentinamente, y desde entonces, muchas han sido las especulaciones y publicaciones que su familia y compañeros de viaje han tenido que sobrellevar. Todavía se despiertan por la mañana pensando que recibirán esa llamada que les permitirá volver a escuchar su voz, la voz única de Dolores. Sus canciones, el consuelo que le queda a su familia. Para ellos hay una dedicatoria. Al leer la letra de A place I know, Noel se dió cuenta inmediatamente de que la había compuesto para una de sus hijas.
PUBLICIDAD

inRead invented by Teads


In the end arranca con All over now, una de las primeras en llegar y un intento de Noel de escribir una canción que sonara como una de sus bandas favoritas, The Cure. “Eso es lo que tenía en mente musicalmente. Luego se la envié a Dolores y al cabo de unos días me la devolvió con la primera estrofa y el estribillo. La canción se construyó a partir de la música”.

 
In the end, la ilusión de Dolores O'Riordan
¿Es este el final de The Cranberries?
Así es. Sin Dolores no hay banda, no hay nada. De hecho, la canción que titula el disco es una despedida que probablemente se convierta en el himno póstumo de la banda irlandesa. “Es una canción muy poderosa. Incluso si este no fuera el fin de The Cranberries, si Dolores siguiera viva, la canción formaría parte de este disco. Habla de las esperanzas que uno tiene y de cuando consigue hacerlas posible. Es la última canción que grabé junto a los chicos antes de que el disco estuviera finalizado. Ese día de grabación en el estudio fue muy emotivo. Era el final, la última vez, después de todo este tiempo, que nos juntábamos como The Cranberries. Mike, Ferg y yo nos conocíamos de mucho antes de formar la banda. Tocábamos juntos antes de que llegara Dolores así que hemos pasado toda una vida juntos, y no es habitual que esto suceda. Es triste por una parte, pero supongo que deberíamos celebrar todo lo que hemos conseguido. Cuando empezamos no éramos nada, llegamos a ser una banda más grande de lo que nunca soñamos y hemos tenido unas vidas alucinantes haciendo esto. Tenemos que estar agradecidos por ello”, nos cuenta Noel Hogan.

 

Pero en In the end no todo es oscuridad y drama, es un disco con unas letras muy poderosas que hablan de superar el pasado y afrontar el presente en positivo. Desafortunadamente para Dolores, al final todo quedó en una ilusión, en un objetivo sin cumplir. “Había superado muchos de sus problemas y estaba entusiasmada con este nuevo disco y con la idea de salir de gira”, afirma Noel. Got it, la última canción que le envió y que había tenido por ahí merodeando durante bastante tiempo hasta que un buen día decidió volver a retomarla, es un tema muy pegadizo, con un sonido más pop de lo que la banda nos tenía acostumbrados. "Quizás los fans esperan un disco más oscuro, pero con In the end se van a llevar sorpresas".

Y si te gustan los Cranberries de siempre, no puedes perderte Catch me if you can. Otro de los temas de Dolores que Noel recibió en forma de demo y que “al trabajar en él fue adquiriendo un sonido muy Cranberries. Al final decidimos añadirle una sección de cuerdas”. Y sorpresa, los músicos son los mismos que tocaron en hits como Linger y Ode to my family. Wake me when it’s over, refleja el estilo y personalidad de Dolores como compositora, con su enorme estribillo al estilo de Zombie. “Nos encantó cuando la escuchamos porque estábamos seguros de que se podría convertir en un gran himno de la banda”.

Hay buena parte del espíritu del primer disco de The Cranberries en este nuevo trabajo y es algo que la banda ha intentado capturar deliberadamente. En primer lugar, volviendo a trabajar con el productor de sus primeros discos, Stephen Street. “En ningún momento hemos intentado reinventarnos ni volvernos locos. La idea era volver al principio y recuperar la esencia”. Y con ese regreso al pasado conecta directamente la portada de In the end, en la que todos los componentes de la banda aparecen representados como niños.

“Cuando conocí a Dolores me pareció una chiquilla muy tímida, callada y vergonzosa”. Y a menudo podemos sentirla un poco perdida y vulnerable al interpretar las canciones de In The End, un disco que verá la luz el próximo 26 de abril. Será el octavo y el último de The Cranberries. La próxima semana compartiremos con vosotros nuestra charla completa con Noel Hogan, fundador de The Cranberries.

Hablamos con Noel Hogan, guitarrista y compositor de The Cranberries, acerca de la despedida de la banda irlandesa. Este viernes 26 de abril ve la luz In the end, el disco que pone punto y final a sus 30 años de historia.

Noel, ¿cómo te sientes un año después de la muerte de Dolores?

Todavía es muy reciente. Sé que ya ha pasado un año, pero para mí es como si sólo hubieran pasado unos meses. Es como si todavía estuviera esperando que me llamara o me mandara un email o algo así. Cuando pasas mucho tiempo con una persona lleva tiempo hacerse a la idea. Perder a alguien es algo complicado a lo que supongo que te tienes que acostumbrar.

¿Qué es lo que más echas de menos de ella?

Dolores era muy divertida, ¿sabes? Tenía un gran sentido del humor. Solíamos reírnos un montón, especialmente mientras trabajábamos. Algunas personas se ponen muy serias cuando trabajan, pero nosotros nos divertíamos mucho juntos. Éramos como cuatro chiquillos de una pequeña ciudad de Irlanda que escribíamos canciones y las tocábamos juntos. Y al final la banda creció y nos llegó el éxito masivo, pero cuando se suponía que las cosas debían ponerse más serias, ella siempre encontraba el lado divertido. Echo mucho de menos esto. Y también componer con ella. He estado escribiendo canciones el último año, pero es raro porque ya no estaba escribiendo para Dolores, sino que estaba componiendo para otras personas y esas canciones nunca serán escuchadas. Eso es lo que más voy a echar de menos.

Siempre has dicho que Dolores y tú escribíais buenas canciones cuando las cosas no iban demasiado bien.

Sí, y hay cierta ironía en ello. En el momento en que empezamos a trabajar en este álbum todas las malas cosas que había estado sufriendo parece que desaparecieron de repente. Dolores tenía problemas importantes pero parecía que por fin los había podido controlar. Las cosas iban bien y estaba muy emocionada con este año, con hacer el disco, salir de gira y todos los planes que teníamos previstos. Antes de que muriera, pensaba que por fin estaba todo bien, así que creo que esa es una de las cosas más duras de aceptar.

Este disco In the end, habla de superar el pasado y afrontar el presente.

Sí, muchas de las canciones del disco cuentan historias sobre cosas y momentos que pasaron años atrás, y de las que hemos estado hablando largo y tendido en primera persona. El resultado son muchas cosas que teníamos que contarnos. Creo honestamente que si Dolores no hubiera fallecido, hubiera escrito más canciones antes de empezar a grabar en el estudio. Era muy constante escribiendo canciones, y las de este disco las escribió entre junio y diciembre de 2017.

¿Como trabajasteis con Dolores en sus últimos meses de vida?

Dolores nos mandaba demos. Con ellas solía compartir alguna idea para que le pusiera la voz y entonces siempre me decía: se me ha ocurrido tal cosa, ¿qué te parece? Y yo le decía si me gustaba o no... A veces me mandaba una letra o un estribillo, a veces una canción terminada. En un periodo de seis meses es difícil hacer un disco entero, así que tengo muchas piezas sueltas en mi disco duro de cuando murió. Es algo que hacíamos habitualmente cuando estábamos grabando.

¿Qué sentiste cuando encontraste más canciones después de su muerte?

Mientras escribíamos nos mandábamos lo que creábamos una y otra vez, así que ya tenía muchas de esas canciones en mi disco duro. Pero había otras partes de canciones que no me había mandado y que su pareja me trajo una vez que falleció para que no se perdieran. De algunos temas, como por ejemplo, All over now, tenía los coros y poco más, y hasta que no vino su pareja no me di cuenta de que había terminado la demo completa. Sé que hay algunas teorías por ahí sobre la existencia de más canciones pero no sé nada de momento.

The Cranberries: “Dolores tenía problemas importantes pero parecía que por fin los había podido controlar”

¿Y cómo afrontas el futuro sin Dolores a la hora de componer?

Ya he empezado a interesarme por hacer colaboraciones con otros artistas. El trabajo con The Cranberries de los últimos 12 meses, desde hacer el álbum hasta prepararnos para este momento, ha terminado. Así que voy a probar suerte con otras personas. Creo que lo mejor es avanzar y colaborar con otra gente. Porque The Cranberries no va a continuar y no quiero empezar otra banda ni unirme a otro grupo. No me interesa en este momento, así que voy a probar a escribir otras cosas.


Este mes de abril entonces, ¿final definitivo de The Cranberries con este disco?

Sí, así es. Aquí termina todo.

¿En ningún momento os habéis planteado continuar con otra vocalista, como han hecho otras bandas?

Dolores era una parte demasiado importante de este grupo. No puede ser reemplazada por nadie, así que no estamos interesados en hacer nada parecido. Estamos felices de dejar las cosas así y que el legado de la banda viva para siempre. Me preocuparía que al hacerlo de la otra manera se destruyera todo lo que hemos construido. Creo que está bien saber en qué momento debes abandonar una fiesta.

¿Cuáles son los mejores momentos para ti de estos 30 años de carrera?

Creo que me quedo con los inicios, con los días en los que éramos cuatro jóvenes que intentaban que su música llegara a todo el mundo tocando en pequeños clubs, haciendo de teloneros de otras bandas. Al principio era una diversión un poco dañina, porque es una vida dura, pero cuando miras atrás, es que fue la primera vez que hicimos un montón de cosas: la primera vez que salimos de gira, la primera vez que grabamos un disco, la primera canción que sonó en una radio... Todas esas cosas te hacen sentir que estás trabajando duro para conseguirlas. Es algo tuyo. No ha habido ayudas externas. Estaba la banda y un par de amigos que venían a los shows. A medida que crece se complica con managers, abogados, compañías de discos y se convierte en un negocio. También está bien, pero para mí los recuerdos de esos primeros días es de con lo que me quedo de toda esta carrera antes de conquistar el éxito.

¿Cuál fue tu primera impresión de Dolores cuando todavía no la conocías y se presentó a la audición?

Me pareció una chiquilla muy tímida, callada y vergonzosa. En la audición estaba muy nerviosa. Estábamos los tres y un puñado de nuestros amigos y se sentía muy intimidada. Pero cuando empezó a cantar nos sorprendió a todos. No me podía creer que teniendo una voz así estuviera buscando una banda, así que pensamos que tenía que estar con nosotros y enseguida encontramos la química que buscábamos.

Antes de despedirnos, ¿con qué te quedas de vuestras visitas a España?

Siempre que hemos ido a España ha sido alucinante. Cuando cantas en inglés te das cuenta y te sorprendes de cómo viaja tu música y cómo se convierte en un éxito fuera de tu país. Cuando viajas a países como España te quedas alucinado por la reacción de la gente, porque es muy pasional. Siempre estábamos deseando volver porque te garantizaba grandes conciertos y muchas emociones. Recuerdo una vez antes de tocar que incluso estuvimos más de una hora parados dentro de un autobús porque había una marea de gente tan grande esperando nuestro concierto, que no podíamos ni entrar…

No estaba previsto que In The End, el disco que The Cranberries acaba de lanzar, fuese a ser el último de la banda irlandesa, hasta que en medio del proceso de composición sobrevino la muerte de su líder, la magnética Dolores O'Riordan, a la que va dedicado este álbum de bella factura.

"Iba a ser un álbum más y me gusta pensar que aún podríamos haber hecho unos cuantos", reconoce al otro lado del teléfono Noel Hogan, guitarrista y coautor de las canciones, para quien la iniciativa de concluir el trabajo iniciado junto a su compañera "era una bonita manera de acabar" esta aventura.

La publicación del nuevo álbum, que representa el octavo de estudio en su carrera y recoge las últimas grabaciones vocales de O'Riordan, es noticiosa además porque constituye el primer material original del grupo desde que hace 7 años publicaran Roses.

Según cuenta Hogan durante una entrevista con Efe, la iniciativa de lanzar nuevos temas surgió durante los ensayos de su disco Something else (2017), en el que reinterpretaban en clave acústica grandes éxitos como Zombie, Linger o Just my imagination.

Ya en su primera parada de la gira ese mismo año, en Polonia, la inspiración asaltó al guitarrista, que rápidamente esbozó el tema que hoy lleva por título A Place I Know, al cual puso letra O'Riordan en apenas dos días, si bien es cierto que el grueso de la composición lo acometieron a partir de junio.

"Dolores estaba más entusiasmada que preocupada por este disco, al que dedicamos mucho trabajo", relata Hogan, incrédulo aún por la muerte de su compañera, de la que recibió un correo electrónico con correcciones apenas unas horas antes de que se ahogara en la bañera de su hotel en Londres estando ebria.

Entre los temas del álbum, destacan piezas confesionales como Lost, con letras en las que la artista, que reconoció haber sido víctima de abusos sexuales de pequeña, canta: "Siento que la tormenta se aproxima, me pregunto por dónde debería empezar. En el pasado, en el pasado, creo que aún vivo en el pasado, y sé que el tiempo ha pasado muy rápido".

"Ella había hecho muchas declaraciones al respecto y está todo muy documentado, no es de extrañar que sus canciones fuesen un reflejo de lo que le había pasado, pero quería dejar todo eso atrás y pasar página. Entonces pasó lo de su muerte...", afirma, incrédulo aún por lo sucedido.

Después de pensarlo mucho y siempre con el beneplácito de la familia, decidieron acabar lo que habían empezado, especialmente porque las maquetas que O'Riordan había dejado con su voz eran tan buenas que el álbum serviría como perfecto homenaje.

"Fuimos muy afortunados de que entrara en nuestras vidas y de la química que se estableció entre nosotros cuando componíamos. No creo que vuelva a pasarme con nadie. Teníamos nuestros altibajos, pero éramos amigos antes que cualquier otra cosa", señala Hogan, aún apenado por la falta.

Para la producción del disco contaron con Stephen Street, el hombre que les ayudó a moldear el sonido de sus primeros trabajos, los celebrados Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? (1993) y No need to argue (1994).

"Supongo que con este disco hubo un intento de captar la energía de aquellos discos, no de reinventar nada a estas alturas, cuando sabíamos que sería nuestro último álbum", reconoce ante una portada que, con unas versiones infantiles de sí mismos, representa "el principio y fin de la banda".

En sus 30 años de existencia, desde la fundación de The Cranberries, en 1989 en Limerick (Irlanda), alcanzaron fama internacional junto a Fergal Lawler y Mike Hogan gracias a su combinación de pop-rock alternativo y elementos del folk celta.

"Nunca pensamos que tendríamos ese éxito. En el mejor de los casos, esperábamos lanzar unos pocos discos en Irlanda. Durante mucho tiempo, sobre todo hasta mediados de los años 90, creía que no estábamos en el lugar que nos correspondía y solo en los dos últimos años fui consciente del legado que representaron canciones como 'Linger' y 'Dreams'", asegura el guitarrista.

A pesar de ello, para él no tiene sentido continuar The Cranberries sin O'Riordan. "No sé cuáles son los planes de los chicos. Me gustaría seguir escribiendo más que nada, ahora mismo para otras personas, porque me parece que mis días en una banda han acabado", señala
