Voice Description

I am a Brit living in Canada, so have quite a nice English accent. I am a sort of middle-of-the-road texture, average Brit.
I have done a few spots for the US, where a British accent ia required, they seem to like my work, for they often come back.

I am also a professional recording engineer. with a professional studio at home, and a larger one in Montreal.
So when you work with me, you also get a professional engineer and studio, for the same price.
