Voice style: Warm, natural, conversational British voice – authentic, friendly, reassuring and credible.

James Crookes is a British voice artist and former commercial radio broadcaster with more than twenty years’ experience creating compelling audio for breakfast audiences.

His voice is warm, intelligent and naturally conversational – the kind of delivery that sounds like a real person rather than a traditional announcer. This style makes him particularly well-suited to corporate narration, brand films, explainers, e-learning, radio commercials and documentary storytelling.

Alongside voice-over work, James is also an audiobook narrator and bestselling author on Audible, where his titles include:

• Do They Know It’s Christmas Yet?
• Did They Steal a Million Yet?
• Wish You Were Here Yet?
• Left at Number 17

His experience as a radio host and producer means he understands pacing, storytelling and how voice fits naturally within a finished production.

James records in a professional home studio, delivering clean, broadcast-quality audio with a quick turnaround and a collaborative, easy-to-direct approach.

Originally from Sheffield in the UK, his natural British accent is clear, approachable and versatile, suitable for a wide range of commercial and narrative work.
