John Milton Peacock: The Man Behind Coast Fest
What started as a pint-fuelled idea in a North Shields boozer has exploded into one of the North East’s biggest grassroots music events. Meet John “Peasy” Peacock — the bucket-hatted whirlwind behind Coast Fest. From wrangling headliners to dodging cease-and-desist letters from Coachella, Peasy’s turned organised chaos into an art form. We catch up with the man who’s putting North Shields firmly on the music map — one unforgettable weekend at a time.
