The Cranberries plus Dermot Kennedy leave Electric Picnic speechless with unforgettable reunion set
Technically speaking, The Cranberries first reunited in 2010, but considering it was just a greatest hits tour, it was unclear just how well the foursome’s chemistry would translate to the studio.
Butter, crisps and Cidona aside, one of our most well-loved musical shipments The Cranberries returns in 2017 refreshed, revitalised and bursting with new tunes.
The Palladium is the perfect dress for the Irish band’s latest show, misleadingly marketed as acoustic with a string quartet – yes there was the string quartet, no it wasn’t acoustic.
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.
Thankfully, 2012’s “Roses” (Cooking Vinyl) follows right in step with 2001’s “Wake Up and Smell the Coffee,” but there’s also a newfound maturity that trails the Irish outfit’s sometimes sweet and often times sassy musical journey.
