"Music is the universal language- it knows no boundaries. It reaches down to the soul and makes a person laugh, cry, reminisce, dance…. My hope is that my music will do just that." -  Calistro “Junior” Vasquez.

Born and raised in Lubbock, Tx. Junior has been an integral part of the music scene in Lubbock and the surrounding area since 1973. His music is acoustic guitar driven folk/Americana influenced by the likes of America, Batdorf and Rodney, James Taylor, Dan Fogelberg, The Beatles etc… He and his wife Mickie have earned the respect of many fellow successful musicians who’ve encouraged them to take their music to the music lovers throughout! Here's some of what their musical friends and peers have to say - 

“I’ve known Junior and Mickie Vasquez for over 50 years. Their songwriting and vocal goodness is second to none. Their live shows are stellar and compelling. And, besides all the talent, they are good Human Beings. I’m glad they are finally taking their music to the World”

Lloyd Maines- Musician and Producer 

My friends and heroes Junior & Mickie Vasquez are consummate musicians. Brilliant singers and instrumentalists — Junior on guitar and Mickie on keys — the two bring years of experience to their gigs. Having a wide and varied repertoire, to include finely-crafted original works, they come prepared for any occasion. And “prepared” means in every way: practiced, rehearsed, technically-sound, musically knowledgeable, reliable, dependable. But of even greater importance, Junior and Mickie are consummate human beings. They bring a bright and genuine presence to their music, a cheery soulfulness which is the most important gift that music — and its practitioners — can bestow. They’re the real deal.
