Tributes from across the world of music have been paid to The Cranberries singer Dolores O’Riordan, who passed away on Monday. O'Riordan's body was found at a hotel in London, her death is being treated as "unexplained" according to police.
The remaining members of the Cranberries, Noel Hogan, Mike Hogan, and Fergal Lawler, shared the first tribute to their band mate.
Producer Stephen Street, who worked with the band on their 1993 debut album Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? and again on their second album No Need to Argue, followed.
Perhaps best know for their songs "Zombie" and "Linger," the group went on to sell over 40 million albums worldwide over the course of its career. The Cranberries released three more albums following No Need to Argue before taking a break in 2003. O’Riordan went on to record two solo albums until the band reformed in 2009.
In 2017 the group released Something Else. However, a European tour was cut short due to O’Riordan suffering from a back problem while a run of U.S. dates were cancelled on her doctor's orders.
