Travis is accompanied here by several scenesters, most notably Fort Worth singer-songwriter and burgeoning producer Walker Wood, who adds digital quirks to the mix, lending to Pollard’s flights of raw emotion a spacey feel. The two work famously together. The vocals are handled by committee, mainly E.J. Brown and Quincy Miller. Brown has a rap cadence, while Miller tends to preachify, as on “EQ”: “No one is the image they live with / … Take a chance and win.” A guest singer, Yendor Reese, lends her soaring vocals to one of the album’s best and most dynamic songs, “Fighting.” Soon … is quite an achievement. With philosophy, technology, history, skill, and imagination, Get Well shows off its ability to adapt to any number of different styles and moods while maintaining a body-moving groove.
