PAT MCINTYRE - SINGING AND PLAYING WITH HIS HEART AND SOUL

Last year we were lucky enough to have Pat McIntyre entertain us all downstairs in the foyer and we're thrilled to welcome him back for 2016.

Pat McIntyre is a singer and acoustic guitarist from Bristol who puts heart and soul into every performance.  Whatever you want on your wedding day, whether it's beautiful bespoke acoustic music for the ceremony itself, chilled out tunes during the reception or a full-on party in the evening, Pat can provide it.

Using a loop pedal, Pat creates a stunning vocal and guitar show and can bring you an incredible repertoire from classics with a modern twist through to current songs.  He covers the whole of the South-West including Bath, Somerset, the Cotswolds, Cornwall, Devon, Dorset and South Wales.

Check out his videos and read the glowing praise of previous clients.

The Tender Trap

Bristol Vintage are delighted that The Tender Trap will be performing at our Fair.  They’ll be playing their distinctive repertoire of classic songs from the 1940s through to the 1970s, mixing and matching old and new, giving everything their very own lounge-tastic twist.

The Tender Trap trio was formed in January 2011 by Joanna Swan, Ruth Hammond and Tammy Payne - all well-established vocalists and musicians in their own rights. With their luscious three-part harmony arrangements [with drum and keyboard accompaniment], they make a sound unlike anyone else around.

Adding a sophisticated 'vintage chic' to any occasion, they can temper their set to suit, whether that’s music for background or performance - just take a look at this YouTube clip for a delicious taster.  For bookings you can email Joanna at thetendertrap@mail.com but don’t miss out… The Tender Trap will be playing at the Fair this Sunday, so come along and hear them perform.  They FROCK!

Rose Popay

Rose Popay is an award-winning artist who can draw live at your wedding! Creating exciting paintings of people and events, she can vibrantly capture your special day, even involving your guests in creating a collaborative artwork that’s yours to keep forever.

The fun begins with Rose drawing the bride and groom, some main features of the venue as well as some of the guests.  Then it’s time for your guests to join in!  They can draw each other, memories of the couple or perhaps even the food.  Rose will continue to draw alongside to give the canvas a strong structure as well as encouraging others to be creative. The picture is then laid down ready for Rose and your guests to paint and by the end of the evening the bride and groom are presented with the canvas.  What an amazing gift!  

It’s a charming record of your wedding day, but also so much more; it entertains as you watch it develop.  The picture can be made into thank you cards for guests and you could also have quick fire drawn portraits done on the day too.  Or, if you send Rose a favourite photo, she can create a drawing in advance – a lovely present for the bride and groom or bridesmaids.  She can even make a canvas out of your wedding photos after the day itself.  Wedding prices start around £350.

For something that little bit different, Rose can also offer a mixture of more risqué entertainment with her fabulous art.  With her strong performance background, she can appear as a character [The Art Tart] to liven up your crowd.  She’s performed all over the world as part of The Natural Theatre and her travels have influenced her artistic style and fed her passion for the bold vibrant utse of colours when painting. For a glimpse at Rose’s performance art, try her YouTube channel where you’ll find a cocktail of Beryl Cooke, Rolf Harris, Marilyn Monroe and a flagon of Dave's leopard skin scrumpy. 

 Her performance can incorporate live drawing of your wedding and reception from its most flattering angle or even, for a truly unique touch, right in amongst the guest involving them in the art work itself.

Take a look at her website, catch her on Facebook and Twitter and best of all find her in person at our Fair.   Rose will be there, so come and meet this wonderfully talented woman and find out how she can give you that unique way to remember your wedding day.  She’ll be offering bargain portraits, so dress to impress!
