The Watery Grave EP was Graham Van Pelt's first release under his solo project Miracle Fortress. The self-released 5 song EP was recorded in 2005 at Friendship Cove, a recording studio/indie rock venue owned by Van Pelt and fellow friend Jack Dylan. The success of Watery Grave gained Van Pelt the attention of Montreal, Canada-based record label Secret City, which led to a collaboration that yielded his first full-length album Five Roses.
