Goodbye Horses: The Many Lives of Q Lazzarus Director Eva Aridjis-Fuentes on Downtown Saturday Night March 1st

This Saturday at 10pm on Downtown Saturday Night, Max Gordon hosts a special conversation with filmmaker Eva Aridjis-Fuentes about her new film “Goodbye Horses: The Many Lives of Q Lazzarus.” Discovered by Jonathan Demme in 1987 during a fateful cab ride, Diane Luckey, aka Q, had a moment of fame after her cult hit song “Goodbye Horses” was featured in The Silence of the Lambs. But while Q had a following in the New York and London club scenes, she was unable to get a record deal and completely vanished from the public eye in 1995. Not even her friends and bandmates knew what had happened to her, that is until another fateful car ride 25 years later brought her together with filmmaker and fan Eva Aridjis-Fuentes. Q entrusted Eva with the incredible story of her life, told in the film for the very first time through Q’s own words and music, and through dozens of never-before heard songs. Eva and Max will talk about the story behind the film and play Q’s songs newly-released on Sacred Bones Records.
