Biography
Richard & Mimi Fariña were an American folk duo, Richard Fariña (dulcimer, vocals) and Mimi Fariña (guitar, vocals), whose two #Vanguard# albums of 1965 helped point folk music toward folk rock. Richard's death in a 1966 motorcycle accident ended the duo; Mimi later founded Bread and Roses. A third album, 'Memories', was assembled from unreleased tapes and issued after Richard's death, completing the duo's small, influential catalogue.
