"HAVE YOU SEEN IN YOUR DREAMS" FROM FIVE ROSES The Video by Sinbad Richardson:
"MAYBE LATELY" FROM FIVE ROSES The Video by Daniel Stafford-Clark:
Miracle Fortress is Graham Van Pelt’s main recording project, based in Montreal. MF is also Graham’s band featuring Jessie Stein, Nathan Ward and Adam Waito. The band does adaptations of the recordings, as well as some actual band songs you might like. Sometimes Graham performs by himself and this is also Miracle Fortress. Sometimes Graham performs as Fort Miracle, which is different, but Graham acknowledges that it may be possibly undesirable self-mythologizing. Graham also plays in the punk-raver-destruction band Think About Life. Five Roses is the first full-length Miracle Fortress album, available via Secret City and Rough Trade. It’s inspired heavily by (and occasionally pays homage to) weirder Nilsson, Phil Spector and Beach Boys stuff, but draws mainly from straight-up studio accidents/surprises, FX mush, ambient drones, drum programming, post-rock, classic rock etc. Five Roses was self- and home-recorded at Friendship Cove.

How's it going, fellow MySpace-ian? In case you missed my bulletin, I just wanted to let you know that my album, "Venus Motel" is now out, and it's playing on my profile! You can listen to the first half now, and the second half beginning in early July. Also, within the next couple of weeks, you will be able to purchase the CD by clicking the link to CD Baby. So come on by, say hi, listen to some tunes, and tell me what you think; I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
Howdy! Come on out to Le Divan Orange this Wednesday (June 25th) for the last OKgiraffe show of the summer! We'd love to see you there... Thanks and Take Care
