About the Artist
Mica Farías Gómez’s music is dedicated to the research and production of Argentine and Latin American folk music in encounters with other folkloric roots music and contemporary sound currents. Her multifaceted, lush and passionate music and soaring vocal cadences can be heard on two studio albums and one live album (all available online) and in the music she composed for the 2018 original soundtrack of the Netflix series El Recluso. The series won the Best International Award at the 2019 Emmys.

About the Series
First Friday Coho Concerts provide a creative forum for talented and visionary musicians to share their gifts and be supported by attendee contributions in a way that values their artistry and encourages their dedication to building a brighter world. Performances take place in the Common House “Great Room” at Cherry Hill Cohousing, a space intimate enough to feel like a house concert but large enough to draw in the larger community. The series is a purely volunteer effort, organized by cohousing members who enjoy live music and want to share their delight with other music lovers in the Valley. All proceeds benefit the artists.
