Micah Ball
Glenwood Springs, CO, United States
Highlights
My voice is a natural narrator and movie trailer voice – often described as strong and sincere, booming, sometimes mysterious or authoritative, deadpan & wry. In a chamber choir I would naturally sing the basso profundo, or deep bass. I can do good characterizations of James Earl-Jones, Satchmo (aka Louis Armstrong), & Wolfman Jack.
