On "Ibogaine Boogie," Jont weds baggy 90s dance-rock with country-tinged indie-folk storytelling on a punchy, playful track that makes heartbreak bounce. Written after a breakup, the song begins with longing and quickly becomes a more pensive question of where happiness actually comes from. Jont does not get bogged down in sadness, but faces the unknown with humor, warmth, and a sense of forward motion. The result is a lively listen with some real emotional reflection but not at the cost of its sense of fun. "Ibogaine Boogie" demonstrates how tough questions can lead to joyful release.
