Mimi Farina

Mimi and Richard Fariña: The Dynamic Duo of Folk Revival Hailing from the heart of Greenwich Village's folk scene in the 1960s, Mimi and Richard Fariña were a force to be reckoned with. This husband-wife duo captured the essence of the era with their intoxicating blend of folk, blues, and rock influences. Mimi's angelic vocals paired perfectly with Richard's intricate guitar work, creating a sound that was both haunting and mesmerising. Their debut album, "Celebrations for a Grey Day", remains a cornerstone of the folk revival movement, with its poignant lyrics and undeniable chemistry between the two musicians. But it wasn't just their music that set them apart - Mimi and Richard were true pioneers in every sense of the word. From their unconventional approach to songwriting to their fearless activism, they were unafraid to push boundaries and challenge the status quo. Tragically, Richard's life was cut short in a motorcycle accident at the age of 29, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire generations of musicians to this day. But Mimi carried on their musical legacy, releasing solo albums and collaborating with other folk legends. Mimi and Richard Fariña may not have achieved the same level of fame as some of their contemporaries, but their impact on the folk music scene is undeniable. They were a true musical partnership, pushing the boundaries of what folk music could be and leaving an indelible mark on the genre.
