Freya Ridings: Live + Signing

If you are looking for something a bit different to do in Brighton this June, Freya Ridings is stopping by Resident Music for an intimate performance and album signing. It is happening on Thursday, 4 June 2026, and the session runs from 18:30 to 20:30. The event is centred around the release of her third album, Mother of Pearl, which touches on themes like resilience, grief, and liberation. Since the physical album release date is 29 May, attendees will be able to pick up their copies at the door when they arrive.

Regarding the logistics, this is a ticketed event. Depending on where you look, the pricing varies slightly, with Visit Brighton listing it at £16.82 and DICE showing prices starting from £18.86. Buying the album with store access gives you priority entry, though if there is space left on the day, they will allow additional people in. It is worth noting that while this is primarily a standing event, there is a limited number of chairs available. If you need a seat or have specific accessibility requirements, you should get in touch with the organisers beforehand at orders@resident-music.com.

The event is open to all ages, which is handy if you are planning to bring younger family members. Children under 14 can attend for free, provided there is still capacity, but you do need to email the organisers at orders@resident-music.com with the subject line 'Under 14s Ticket' to arrange this. It is a straightforward setup: a chance to hear the new material live in a smaller, more personal setting and get your copy of the record signed. If you are a fan of her work or just enjoy catching live music in local record shops, it is a fairly relaxed way to spend a Thursday evening in the city.
