The Cranberries' first band biography is about to be released

Limerick rock icons' career is covered from the very beginning in Why Can't We?, with decades of pictures and interviews from the Hot Press archives

The Cranberries, caught in their mid-Nineties pomp by photographer Cathal Dawson. 

It's being claimed as the first "career-covering book" about The Cranberries, and Why Can't We? helps cement the legacy of the high-flying Limerick band. 

The group's surviving members have given a helping hand in the creation of the book, partly as a tribute to their friend and frontwoman Dolores O'Riordan, who passed away in 2018.
