“EYE OF THE STORM”
An exhibition of Storm Thorgerson editions from 23 February to 19 March 2026 at The Long Gallery in Tilford (UK).
The giant eye from The Cranberries (famous/infamous) album cover is on display. CCA Galleries posted a short video on their socials (Facebook for instance) about it.
Announced yesterday on Dublin Airport’s socials (Facebook for instance), a brand new wall in the arrivals corridor of Pier 2 to celebrate iconic Irish artists, including The Cranberries among a few others, with immersive sound, lighting and bold visuals to create a vibrant musical welcome for passengers.
The year 1995, a short introduction in both Irish and English, and a photo from the (1993!) New York City shoot by Bob Berg were selected for The Cranberries.
As you may remember, Fergal made an appearance at the SCAD Festival in October 2025 as music composer for the documentary “Don Bluth: Somewhere Out There”
The documentary is not available on streaming services yet but will be shown at the Dublin International Film Festival 2026 in a few days, on 28 February.
Will Fergal make an appearance? We have no information and this is only speculation, but it does seem very likely. For any fans in Dublin/Ireland who want to watch the film (and hear Fergal’s musical composition), and maybe meet the man, details for the film’s screening are here: Dublin International Film Festival 2026
Thanks to Jason once again for the info!

Yesterday in Dublin in a full-house 3Arena were the 50th anniversary celebrations of Hot Press magazine. A special event/concert named “Hot Press 50 · History In The Making”
Among many artists, featured Mike and Noel Hogan for a special performance with Dermot Kennedy, just like it happened at Electric Picnic last year (without the full orchestra!)
The set was possibly 4 songs, three from The Cranberries, “Linger”, “Zombie”, “Dreams”, and one from Dermot Kennedy, “Funeral” (the first single of his 3rd album).
“Linger” was definitely the opening, “Dreams” the last one, so “Funeral” and “Zombie” were possibly the second and third ones, or the opposite.
Dermot Kennedy shared a few Instagram Stories from the show (videos and photos) as well as a few snippets from the rehearsals and soundcheck earlier in the day. Have a look before they disappear!
The 4 songs filmed in 4K from the front row were shared on YouTube by user Kjed4ever.
Special thanks to her!
Also available, the live report published by Hot Press on hotpress.com
The “Uncertain” page on the UK store was updated today with 2 major changes. The vinyl is now listed as 140g instead of 180g originally and the release date is now 13 February instead of 6 March.
Those who already ordered have also received an email from universal:
Let’s note that the same page on the US store (see screenshot below) does not mention the 180g anymore, nor 140g. Weird! Then comes a question, are there 2 different pressings (US and UK/Europe) or is there only one (the US one) arriving in Europe next week and in fact 140g? Time will tell…
EDIT: US PRESSING ONLY!
Supposed to be shipped in 2 days… a few American fans already received their “Uncertain” copy TODAY! Custom-Numbered Stamp limited to 1,200 copies.
Special thanks to Saeed Ali for the photos; he says the sound quality is great as well as the cover art!
