Thomas John

Midwestern (Minnesotan, as in the movie Fargo) Southern (US) Deep South (US) Indian (India) British accent

Thomas has always been interested in using his voice. Since he was a teenager he memorized and recited television and radio commercials. He would often impress his friends and family with his voice talent. In the early 1980's Thomas became involved with a group of musicians and began playing keyboards with the group but eventually sang as well. The group liked his voice as he was better than the other singers and they asked him to become the lead vocalist. Thomas went on to sing lead and backing vocals for a number of other bands. In the late 1980's Thomas sang, played keyboards and arranged the music for an album that he produced. For more than 20 years Thomas has been singing, reading and performing comedy that has delighted a variety of audiences. His comedy routines which include southern, east indian and "Minnesota" accents kept his audiences in stitches. While doing volunteer work for a Boy Scout based organization Thomas created an educational video which he narrated. About that same time he began writing scripts and voice overs for an interactive voice response system for a real estate rental company. Having used his voice for singing, performing comedy, narrating and creating voice response recordings it was apparent that becoming a voice actor was the logical next step. His experience with a variety of dialects and his professionalism make Thomas the perfect voice choice for your next project. Thomas is currently creating and developing a variety of character voices and there will be more to come. Musical stage performances as a singer/musician. Stand-up comedy for a variety of audiences. Educational video narration. Interactive Voice Response System script design. 20 years experience on stage and off. Practice, practice, practice!
