Mangotsfield festival thanks

We’d like to say thanks to everyone who came along to the 2012 Mangotsfield festival. The weather was really wet and the mud was starting to look a little bit like Glastonbury, but the crowd was still up for it, and we had a great night.

We’ll hopefully see you there again next year.

Thanks

I’m really glad you enjoyed yourselves at Party in the City, and the audience certainly did too! You were a great act to close the night at Parade Gardens, and it was brilliant to see so many people dancing before the fireworks.

Boogie on down with great live music from Vehicle

Vehicle LiveVehicle are a nine piece band hailing from Bristol in the UK. The band was brought together with the aim of standing out from the usual crowd of covers bands who all seem to be performing the same old tired numbers, the same old tired way. “Lets try something a little more challenging” they thought. So they did!

Vehicle consists of 9 musicians of the highest calibre. Starting with an absolutely storming rhythm section, continuing with a tight and powerful brass section and topped off with a highly entertaining Vocalist. The key to the Vehicle sound is the diversity of the musical backgrounds of all it’s members. This enables Vehicle to perform a huge variety of material ensuring that the Vehicle play list has something for everyone. For a taster, check out the music section.
