My Voice Experience

Garan Fitzgerald is a bassist and voice actor who was trained in music classically in the United States and came to Seoul to further his professional experiences. Relying on the skills developed during his studies under Homer Mensch at The Juilliard School and Bruce Bransby at Indiana University (as well as a lifetime of odd jobs), Garan finds himself playing in many eclectic groups and voicing a wide range of characters and styles. Currently he is recording and performing in Seoul, South Korea with Coamorous: Oriental Tango Project and other various artists. Garan's voice has been heard on TBS radio's "Drive Time," Arirang radio's "Korean It Words," several seasons of Arirang TV's "All Together," and is currently a regular guest on Arirang Radio’s "Travel Bug." He has also voiced characters for several cartoons and animated films produced by EBS, and been a long time reader of national English tests in Korea--including TOEFL, TOEIC, and NEAT testing-- as well as corporate presentations for such companies as Samsung, LG, and Kia and Hyundai Motors. Garan is a sought after talent in the music and voice acting fields in Korea and he is always excited to take on new projects and challenges.
