Jon Coe is a talented musician and actor living in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts. Jon is credited with forming two seminal Boston bands: The Molls, and Someone and The Somebodies. The Molls were a favorite at legendary Boston club "The Rat" opening for acts including UK Squeeze, John Cale, and The Plasmatics. The Somebodies became friends with U2 and opened 13 shows in the Northeast over 2 years in the early 80s, and twice for Talking Heads. Jon's experience includes almost two decades in corporate B2B inside sales and account development. Jon developed excellent "phone manner", ability to build instant rapport and credibility, plus concisely articulate complex concepts to senior level executives. Prospects and customers continually asked if he had considered broadcasting/corporate communications (brand voice)/training narration, etc. Based on this feedback, Jon hired an experienced Voice Acting Coach and became immersed in acting techniques over the past year. Jon's combined experiences of drumming, performing, creating music, working in recording studios, familiarity with virtual recording systems, producing product on deadlines, and the recent immersion in acting techniques, ideally position him to serve clients needing exceptional voice over/narration/acting talent. Jon's voice is warm, memorable, and well suited to a wide variety of projects.
