I have a young to mid-aged flexible voice with a range covering anything from urban through to soft sell, warm, believable & real. With a clear voice and professional background, you’ll find it’s perfect for business & corporate recordings. I'm extremely versatile, personable, & reliable. I am regularly booked for 'Conversational' reads or when a warm, trusted voice is required.
My natural accent is RP, with a hint of Estuary for that 'real' edge. I am confident and convincing in many other accents around the UK and from around the world.
My huge vocal versatility allows for a wide range of character voices, perfect for video games, cartoons and animation.

Here are a few nice comments that Clients have said about me:
“Bruce is fantastic to work with. He’s reliable, flexible and has a great sense of humour. Bruce starred in a video promoting our clients’ new IVR too and they loved it. He’s a real pleasure to work with.” Susie Lealan – SOH – new IVR telephone system for npower PLC
“Bruce was a pleasure to deal with, he listened to our ideas and understood the sort of voice over style we were after as he is extremely versatile and offers a good range of different styles. Bruce produced something that the client was extremely happy with and all in good time, so would definitely recommend Bruce and we look forward to working with him again in the near future” Angi Wren – Bitpod Online Video Marketing.
“Working with Bruce was an absolute pleasure. He had to cope with names and words from an unfamiliar language containing pronunciations that seemed to defy the vocal and auditory capabilities of an English only speaker like myself. Despite this and the additional challenges of a tight deadline and some ‘on the run’ changes, Bruce’s temperament and delivery never faltered. He added energy & drama without it feeling over hyped, and at the same time provided the softer touches needed to show empathy for the victims of a catastrophic tragedy. I’d be delighted to work with Bruce again.” Andrew Holland–Beach House Pictures–‘Himalayan Tsunami’ for Discovery Channel.
