Q Lazzarus is a female African-American singer, best known as a one hit wonder for the 1988 song "Goodbye Horses", which was featured in "Married to the Mob", "The Silence of the Lambs", "Clerks II", Lakai Footwear's "Fully Flared", and Rockstar's videogame "Grand Theft Auto IV".

Q Lazzarus is known for having a husky bass voice not unlike Kathleen Turner. Before she was discovered as a singer, she worked as a taxi driver in New York City. The band dissolved at some point before 1996. Apart from Q, Mark Barrett and songwriter William Garvey, nothing is publicly known about the other band members.
