Michael Carrillo,
Production Instructor

Michael Carrillo aka “Mikey Vibe” is on the creative turf of San Antonio as a singer song writer, composer, and front man of the city’s “biggest” indie rock band, Deer Vibes. 

For over a decade Carrillo has been involved and passionate about supporting the growth of local music in San Antonio, whether it be by taking the role of promoter, producer, music venue owner, or fan. Carrillo is a two time SXSW official artist, and has performed along side a handful of large names in and out Texas – his favorite being Creed Bratton (Grass Roots / The Office.) 

In December of 2015 Deer Vibes released “The Nature Of” Album accompanied by the Youth Orchestra of San Antonio at The Empire Theater in San Antonio, TX. From the grand indie rock sounds of Deer Vibes, to the Singer Songwriter’s lyrically focused country folk project “Michael J. & The Foxes,” he has continued to show his talent through various styles of writing and composing music. Carrillo has scored music for recognized local film maker Alex Ramirez for the short film “When She Returns.” In 2020 Carrillo joined in on the City’s “What Will It Take” Campaign by creating a jingle, supporting the importance of safety during the Covid 19 pandemic. 

Mikey is currently working on recording for both Deer Vibes and The Foxes’, with multiple releases planned by the end of 2022.
