The Cranberries were an influential Irish rock band from Limerick, active from 1989 to 2019. Formed by brothers Noel and Mike Hogan, drummer Fergal Lawler, and later joined by iconic vocalist Dolores O'Riordan, the group gained fame for blending alternative rock with elements of indie, pop, and folk. After signing with Island Records, their debut album "Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We" achieved major success, followed by international recognition with "No Need to Argue" and the hit single "Zombie." The band continued to release successful albums through the 1990s and toured worldwide. Despite lineup changes and a brief hiatus, The Cranberries remained active until O'Riordan's passing in 2018, after which the band disbanded, releasing one final album, "In the End." Over their career, The Cranberries sold nearly 50 million albums, won multiple major awards, and created a lasting legacy in alternative music. Their song "Zombie" remains a global anthem, and its music video was the first by an Irish band to reach one billion views on YouTube.
