Dolores O’Riordan’s body was found submerged in the bathtub of a hotel room in London, England, where she was staying. The vocalist was in town to record a participation in a cover that Bad Wolves would do for the song “Zombie”, the Cranberries biggest hit – the song was re-recorded by the group without Dolores’s vocals and the income earned with the version (US $ 250,000) was donated to the artist’s family.
