Less Stress Fest

17/06/2026

Another LSF debut and all round good egg is the mighty Dan Swift. We’ve been collaborating off and on for a couple of years including programming The Bridge festival together as well as delivery of training to the Bridge participants from his dope studio space .lab.ncl so I’m buzzing to have him join the crew at the farm this summer.
Not just a powerhouse behind the scenes, Dan is also no stranger to the stage, reppin his style across multiple events and stations including the BBC and most recently as a face for Newcastle United
This year Dan stepped up his involvement with Method and is currently running music training across the region for our young people’s groups and helping me plan for future events, shows and opportunities!
Defo one to watch, catch him live in action at Less Stress Fest.
It’s gonna be proper mint choc chip!

Very excited to confirm Golden Shields will be making their LSF debut this summer.
Long-time collaborators and Freerotation residents, Suade Bergemann and Steven Legget create immersive live performances that blend analogue synthesis, field recordings and intricate sample manipulation. Their music moves between ambient, experimental, and cinematic soundscapes, balancing detailed sound design with a strong sense of musicality.
We’ve known these guys for many years, watched them, listened to them, danced to them, bought records by them and even partied with them here and there (shout outs to the west park massive) so couldn’t be happier to have them coming to the farm next month.
Catch them opening the main stage on Saturday.
It’s gonna be proper mint choc chip!

Rebel Heart makes her LSF debut this summer!
Longtime friend and occasional collaborator, we’ve partied and boogied our way around a fair few raves, club nights and festivals together!! Frequently to the sound of her other half dropping some quality beats thru a hefty rig.
She joins Fiery Little T and the Fund a Fest crew this year, bringing some dazzlement and fairy magic to the farm!
Don’t miss it!!

I suppose we should give this guy a mention!
Less Stress founder and international burger lover Sandy will of course be back at the farm this summer!
He’s already been busy programming and making sure all the right people, things and activities are in place.
With a proven track record for great parties and events such as Lindisfarne Festival (currently voted best uk small festival), The Bridge UK Hip Hop festival, TRUOLDSKOOL raves and all nighters plus various big graffiti jams and exhibitions as well as setting up and running Method Radio… he’s a busy lad!
Catch him on patrol up at Less Stress Fest, smile on his face and a burger in his hand (or maybe a taco or two) and possibly even spinning some wax.
It’s gonna be proper mint choc chip!

Another face behind the scenes making LSF happen is the legend Double Sweet Pete!
The host with the most… Pete’s beautiful farm is home to Less Stress Fest and he works tirelessly to keep it the best location for an intimate and fun festival. You’ll catch him whizzing about onsite fixing problems, tidying up and making sure everyone’s having the best time!
We literally couldn’t do this without him so big ups Pete! You certainly are double sweet and of course…
Proper mint choc chip!!

Finding a crew shot of the epic 80 strong Method squad proved harder than expected.
So here’s a nice picture of them hanging around outside their favourite pub… (the legendary The Tanners Arms of course).
Less Stress is a Method fam thing so it’s no surprise the crew will be there reppin’ hard and making sure things go smoothly.
The team will be onsite at the farm managing stages, stewarding, playing records, painting things and being generally helpful and proper mint choc chip (as always)!

Dropping a shout out to the CBC crew!
This awesome team will be helping Natalie at the Canny Butterfly Cafe, cooking up treats, keeping things calm and helping the farm stay s**c and span.
And what a canny bunch they are!!
I’ve known some of the team since I first started sneaking into nightclubs and all nighters. Others I’ve met more recently through the festival circuit.
But one thing remains constant…
This is the kindest and friendliest team you’ll meet. If you feel hungry, tired or full of woe, head to the cafe!!
It’ll be proper mint choc chip!

Another squad we couldn’t run without is the legendary Team Guerrilla!
From sound, lighting to beers and hospitality… these guys serve it up in fine style!
Led by the awesome Tony Guerrilla, this team will be back at Less Stress Fest this summer making sure everything runs smoothly and keeping the crowds smiling.
It’s gonna be proper mint choc chip!

Gotta drop a big shout out to Rob and the team who add some extra vava-voom to LSF with their busses that double as graffiti canvas, dj booth and well stocked bar!
Robs been a big help getting these events over the line and a big part of the Less Stress team, couldn’t do it without him!
The Depot area is always jam packed and a great place to grab a cold drink, enjoy some hot sun, listen to great music and watch some awesome live art!!
Buzzing its back, bigger and bolder than before, at the farm this summer!!
It’s gonna be proper mint choc chip!
