Cranberries singer Dolores O'Riordan dead at 46─── 20:30 Mon, 15 Jan 2018
London - Dolores O'Riordan, lead singer of Irish band The Cranberries, has died. She was 46.
Publicist Lindsey Holmes says O'Riordan died suddenly on Monday in London, where she was recording. The cause of death wasn't immediately available.
Holmes says the singer's family is "devastated" by the news.
The Limerick band became international stars in the 1990s with hits including Zombie and Linger.
The band split up in 2003 but reunited several years later. The Cranberries released the acoustic album Something Else in 2017 and had been due to tour Europe and North America. The tour was cut short because O'Riordan was suffering from back problems.
In 2014, O'Riordan was accused of assaulting three police officers and a flight attendant during a flight from New York to Ireland. She pleaded guilty and was fined $6600.
