Tony Applegate is Aquatic Debris, a one-man band and veteran multi-instrumentalist with over 53 years of experience crafting raw, spontaneous, and deeply expressive music. Blending elements of rock, blues, country, and psychedelic jam, his sound is a living, breathing fusion of American roots and experimental spirit.
Every performance is fully live — no pre-recorded tracks. Just one person, a collection of instruments, and decades of musical instinct driving the moment.
With a focus on real-time improvisation, Tony creates full-band energy solo, building dynamic, evolving songs right on the spot. Creating an unpredictability encouraging unique performances with a sense of tension and space to explore in and around songs, struggling to reach something
Drawing from a lifetime of playing and a deep love for the spontaneous synchronicity of live music, Tony delivers a sound that's gritty, soulful, and completely unfiltered — music that happens now, not before.
