"The world has lost a true artist today. Noel, Mike and Fergal," read a tweet from their official handle.
O'Riordan had replaced Niall Quinn in the band and went on to be associated with The Cranberries till their split in 2003, delivering hits such as "Zombie" and "Linger".

"I'd never heard somebody use their instrument in that way. Shocked and saddened to hear of her passing, thoughts are with her family," Hozier wrote.

Corden shared his memory of meeting the singer as a teenager.
