Biography

The Cranberries, formed in Limerick, Ireland in 1990 by brothers Noel and Mike Hogan with drummer Fergal Lawler, rose to prominence in the early '90s with their distinctive blend of indie guitar pop and dream pop. Led by vocalist Dolores O'Riordan, the band achieved international success with hits like "Linger" and "Zombie." Over the years, they released several albums, including Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? and No Need to Argue, before taking a hiatus in 2003. Following O'Riordan's tragic death in 2018, the band completed their final album, In the End, using her demo vocals, which garnered critical acclaim and a Grammy nomination.

The Cranberries' journey was marked by lineup changes and industry challenges, including a rocky start with their debut single "Uncertain." Despite early struggles, the band's sound evolved, culminating in successful albums like To the Faithful Departed and Bury the Hatchet. After a hiatus, they reunited for tours and released new music, including the albums Roses and Something Else. O'Riordan's untimely passing in 2018 led to the release of In the End, their poignant farewell album. The band continues to honor her legacy with compilations and reissues, keeping the Cranberries' music alive for fans worldwide.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
