Ionne’s new album “A Light Untruth” is a reflective, absorbing listen that stays grounded in honesty and detail. Released through 5015 Records, it marks a noticeable shift in direction for the artist as he eases away from his earlier EDM focus and settles into a more alternative sound. The change suits him, giving the ten tracks a direct and personal feel.
The project grew from Ionne’s collaborations with visual artists Mary Barr Rhodes and Ben Britton during the Sonos Lumia exhibitions. That background explains why the album feels so intentional, almost as if each song has a picture attached to it. The opening run of tracks introduces the album’s emotional center. “Headlight” arrives with a vivid narrative of transition and aftermath, and it is not surprising that this song inspired the album cover captured by Kasaad Bullock. “Dusk & Dawn” sits in the hazy space between closeness and distance, while “Blacklight” imagines a world where brightness and shadow blur together. “The Neverending Sun” shifts the mood outward, nudging listeners to think about how personal gain often intersects with someone else’s loss.
The album’s title comes from Ionne’s reflections on truth, shaped in part by his academic work. Instead of presenting certainty, the record lingers on the quiet stories people tell themselves to understand joy, pain, intention, and consequence. That thread runs through all ten songs, giving the project a steady sense of unity.
Personally, I found myself going back to this album more than I expected. Some of the gentler moments stayed with me long after listening. There is an ease in how the songs unfold that makes the experience feel natural and unforced. If you enjoy music that invites reflection while still offering a strong artistic identity, “A Light Untruth” is worth sitting with. Follow Ionne on your favorite platforms and add the tracks to your playlist so the album continues to grow and reach new listeners. Independent artists thrive when listeners stay connected, and this release deserves to be part of your regular rotation.
