"Where All the Wars Began" November 14th, 2025 by Matthew Applegate

A boy stumbles into love through music, rebellion, and heartbreak, each muse teaching him more about the world and himself before vanishing like a verse unfinished. Grief becomes his teacher as he learns to speak through instruments, collecting melodies in place of closure. In the end, he plays not to forget them, but to remember them rightly-still waiting, still dreaming, still holding out his pinky.

Where All the Wars Began the debut album from Matthew Applegate serves as a musical biography focussed on the events from 1993 - 2000. Exploring the relationships and experiences of a young man making his way into the world of music.
