Profile Information

I WORK IN THE VOICE OVER INDUSTRY AS A(N)
Voice Actor, Copy Writer, Studio Engineer, Creative Director
HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE
Began my voiceover career at the age of 13, then became a radio DJ. Regained my senses and concentrated on voiceover/production, full-time. Curerently work for Nick Sommers Productions in Sarasota, Florida--one of three major companies dedicated to the creation of radio and TV for the concert and live events industry. We handle Elton John, Feld Entertainment/Disney, The Commodores and myriad other clients. Since Sept. 2001, I've been the national radio voice of WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), creating, voicing, producing all radio in our performance markets, worldwide.
RECENTLY BOOKED PROJECTS
Created audio for radio and TV for Celine Dion's six-year "A New Day" at Casar's Palace in Las Vegas; the current Bette Middler "The Showgirl Must Go On" show, "Titanic: The Artifact Exhibit," "Dialog in the Dark," "The Rat Pack is Back," and many more. I even voice the radio/TV spots for Jig-A-Loo spray lubricant (Get your mind out of the gutter--It's like WD40).

I'm back for the third consecutive year as the radio/ TV voice (mostly TV, this year) for "The Radio City Christmas Spectacular, starring The Rockettes," touring 36 markets in the US and Canada through early January 2010.

I do numerous freelance projects, outside of my NSP work, for commercials, film and video narration, radio imaging, TV station promo work--you name it. I have the distinct honor of being the new signature voice for "The Cigar Dave Show," a long running sydicated radio show, heard on more than 90 stations across America and live on Sirius/XM, Saturdays from noon to 2. It's the only show dedicated to cigars, spirits and diversions. As many of you may know, I'm a fan of great cigars and it's a thrill to be broadcasting from "Theater 1A, in the Cigar City of Tampa, Florida, USA..with The General."
VOICE DESCRIPTION
From deep, warm and seductive to dramatic, authoritative in-your-face. Distinctive "movie trailer" voice, heard across America, for nearly 30 years. The national radio voice of World Wrestling Entertainment, since 2001
DIALECTS, Character voices and vocal impersonations
Dialects aren't really my bag, although, I answer my land line with a reasonably good Dublin Irish accent. When I say, "Hello! Father Fleming!" It gets rid of telemarketers INSTANTLY--especially when I tell them they've reached a funeral chapel.
LANGUAGES
English only. After 42 years, there's no point in trying to master another tongue. Tried Russian in college, but all I can remember how to say in the language is that I don't speak it. Well, that and some of the dirty words..
WEBSITE

AUDIO DELIVERY METHOD
FTP, AIF, MP3, WAV
EQUIPMENT
In my studio, I use my own 1968 Neumann U87 mic, modified by Klaus Heyne. Focusrite processors, the latest Pro Tools editing software and plug ins.

By the way, I LOVE the little CENTRANCE MICPORT PRO. My wife, Colleen, uses it to record tags for Playhouse Disney Live, from our home, which I produce, when I get to the studio. For $150, it's waaaaaayyyyy underpriced! I have Colleen on an AKG 414, with a Presonus VXP.
VOICES I AM ABLE TO PERFORM
Senior Male, Middle Age Male
