The Cranberries - Unplugged

The Cranberries’ Unplugged captures a defining moment in the band’s history, now finally available on vinyl for the first time. Recorded in 1995 for MTV’s iconic Unplugged series, the performance came at the height of their global success and in the wake of their acclaimed sophomore album No Need to Argue. Stripped of studio production, the band delivered raw, intimate versions of their hits, letting Dolores O’Riordan’s unmistakable voice shine with haunting clarity.

The set unfolds with the quiet intensity that made The Cranberries so singular—a blend of ethereal melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and the emotional push and pull between fragility and strength. Backed by gentle acoustic arrangements, O’Riordan’s vocals take on new depth, giving familiar songs a renewed and deeply human resonance.

Nearly three decades later, this long-awaited release preserves a rare and timeless performance from one of the most beloved bands of the 1990s, offering listeners a chance to experience The Cranberries’ music as it was meant to be heard—unadorned, honest, and utterly captivating.
