Get Well Soon is a music project and a band of the German singer, songwriter and instrumentalist Konstantin Gropper (born September 28, 1982).

Gropper worked 3 years on his debut album "Rest Now, Weary Head! You Will Get Well Soon" which was released in Germany, Austria and Switzerland by the Label City Slang in January 2008 following lots of positive reviews in the biggest german music magazine. The lyrics are known to be slightly philosophical and cynical (e.g. "Witches! Witches! Rest Now In The Fire" and "We Are Safe Inside While They Burn Down Our House"). The album entered the German Album Charts on no. 28 and the release tour with 19 most sold out shows was the most successful newcomer tour in Germany in 2008. The Album was released by NUDE Records in the UK and Ireland in June 2008, followed by great press reviews (NME, Word Magazine, Uncut, Artrocker, Guardian). The album was released in France in September 2008 and entered the official french album charts on no. 91.
