Matt Ridley Sextet - The Antidote
Matt Ridley Sextet - The Antidote at Hidden Rooms, Cambridge
Thursday 21 May 2026
About the show
Building on the success of their previous 3 releases, 'The Antidote' are back with a reformed, extended line-up and a wealth of new repertoire. The new music showcases Matt Ridley's hallmark writing: lyrical melodies underpinned by deep grooves and uplifting harmonic progressions - a compelling blend that speaks to both the jazz aficionado and uninitiated listener.
In addition to the album's worth of new material that will be performed at this concert, also expect to hear selected favourites from the previous 3 albums.
