Today on Q with Tom Power:

  • Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Courtney Barnett talks about her personal new documentary, Anonymous Club, and the toll that touring took on her mental health in 2018.

  • Thundercat discusses his album It Is What It Is, and opens up about losing his close friend and collaborator Mac Miller.

  • On the 30th anniversary of their debut album, Up, Fred and Richard Fairbrass of Right Said Fred tell us how their megahit I'm Too Sexy came together.

  • Bestselling author Michael Wex explains how a Yiddish opera was almost lost to history — and how he helped fill in a few blanks when a manuscript was rediscovered.

  • Street dancer and choreographer Crazy Smooth talks about his show, In My Body, which challenges the myth that aging is the death knell for a dancer.
