Testimonials

“Need a smooth, melodic voice? Or maybe a female character, like a gum-snapping waitress or a doting mom? How about a cabaret singer? Make one call to Randye. She'll nail it.” - Joe Giaccone, President
Spoken Arts Media, NY
“Spoken Arts first recorded Randye Kaye in 1984, and have had her voice dozens of projects ever since. Producing children’s audiobooks requires great narrators; Randye is the consummate storyteller. She is among the best voice actors we’ve ever recorded…a real pro.”

Herb Jay Productions
“ Randye Kaye has been the outstanding performer in quality (and quantity) in the hundreds of radio and TV spots I have produced. She always has an intelligent understanding of the script and a rare voice that is warm, persuasive and gently commanding. I rely on her work more than any other actor.”
- Herb Jay - Producer, Director
Walt Graham Productions, Norwalk, CT
"Randye ‘gets it.’ She has a way of sensing the right level of assertiveness, compassion, playfulness, sarcasm (or whatever is being called for) on the first take so that subsequent takes are more a matter of fine-tuning. Recommending Randye Kaye to my clients makes me look good!"
Robustelli Media Group
