Overview
Get Well Soon release a brand new album Vexations on the 25th January 2010, through City Slang. Vexations is the 2nd album from Get Well Soon and the follow up to the critically acclaimed debut Rest Now, Weary Head! You Will Get Well Soon; released in 2008.
Get Well Soon is the project of classically trained singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Konstantin Gropper from Berlin. Gropper is also a composer of film scores; his latest being for Wim Wenders' (Paris, Texas / Buena Vista Social Club) film Palermo Shooting.
Vexations is a truly beautiful work, one that sparks the imagination with its poetic depth, classical montages and haunting panoramic mood mosaics. A concept album of sorts, Gropper says the album "is about the feeling of calmness, after managing vexations, the album isn't about vexation itself, it is about dealing with that vexation" The album title is taken from a piece of piano music by Erik Satie first printed in 1949.
Get Well Soon blend music from all over the world – from folk to electro, Morricone soundtracks to tango and have drawn comparison to Beirut, Patrick Wolf, Tom Waits and Nick Cave.
