Unleash the Power of your Voice
Damn Good Voices Studios, formerly Crying Out Loud have been recording voiceovers and voicereels since 1995 for a huge range of international clients covering content for commercials, corporate, gaming and animation. We also have 2 studios designed for this purpose.
Studio One is the client studio with an engineer/voice director and Studio Two is a self-op studio for voice artists who don’t have a home studio.
Our team is made up of Simon, Marina, Adam and Debbie, all of whom are hugely experienced industry practitioners (we have a combined 120 years joint experience! We've recorded thousands of voicereels, thousands of hours of content and have subsequently generated £Millions in voiceover artist fees via our talent agency Damn Good Voices. Our clients have also won voiceover awards for their work, and we continue to make excellence the cornerstone of what we do - from the detail and care we offer during the process of making a reel to a distinctive industry standard final product.
Please explore the website - everything you need to know should be easy to find.
