Help Wanted Nights is the fourth album by the Omaha-based band The Good Life, released on September 11, 2007 on Saddle Creek Records. Currently, frontman Tim Kasher has moved to Los Angeles and has written a screenplay entitled Help Wanted Nights. He has stated that the screenplay acts as a 'counterpart' to the album:
I tried to have the songs be less storytelling, and less narrative...since I was writing this fictionalized counterpart to this thing, I kind of liked the idea of writing songs to [exist] more as ideas that complement something else that was written. I tried to focus less on narrative and more on those big ideas.[1]
In regards to the content of the album, Kasher reveals that the new album involves:
"Roughly a week in a bar in a small town where a stranger's car breaks down...so, he fraternizes with the regulars, getting too wrapped up in their sordid lives. Something like that."[1]
Release
Help Wanted Nights was made available for streaming on September 5, 2007, prior to its release six days later through Saddle Creek Records.[2] Between September and December 2007, the Good Life went on a tour of the US, followed by a trek around mainland Europe.[3][4]
