The Good Life is an indie rock band on Saddle Creek records.
Started as a solo project of Cursive's frontman Tim Kasher, The Good Life quickly grew to become its own established group. Kasher fronts the group and plays the part of the singer/songwriter. The other members of the band include Stefanie Drootin, Ryan Fox, and Roger Lewis.
The Good Life has its core in those four musicians, but besides Kasher can be a rotating cast of characters involving many from Saddle Creek Records.
The Good Life released their fourth album, Help Wanted Nights on September 11, 2007. The album leaked onto the internet on August 27, 2007. [1].
