Beautiful beautiful beautiful. limited to just 200 copies - one per person. miracle fortress is from the brainwaves of graham van pelt, a montreal-based multi-instrumentalist and vocalist who builds wall of sound pop songs in the tradition of brian wilson and brian eno. in late 2005, graham van pelt began recording as miracle fortress after co-founding the multi-functional art space / venue / studio space, friendship cove, with local artist jack dylan in montreal's griffintown. graham composed, recorded, and mixed the entire 'five roses' album himself within a few months; only taking time out to perform as a solo act opening for bands like love is all, vic chestnut, and locals sunset rubdown and islands. 'five roses' is an ambitious and engaging record of sprawling pop songs that echo my bloody valentine, animal collective, the beach boys, john cale and arcade fire. originally from stratford, ontario, graham (age 23) is also a member of montreal's think about life (alien8 / what's your rupture).UK people get yours here.
