Voice Description

Being a British native my accent comes from the South of the country. My voice can range from warm and deep for narrations, to aloof and fun for commercials, and also to official and professional for presentations and other similar projects. I also have extensive major recording experience musicallyhaving been the lead vocalist for the band "New York To Tokyo" signed to the LA based record label "Red Car Records".
The flexibility of my voice along with my distinct accent allow for great results in any project. From the "Geico Gecko" to the Queen's English my voice can do it all. Jeremy Clarkson of "Top Gear" fame would be a comparison for my natural speaking voice."
