Hi, I’m Josh Shirt!
I have been a full-time professional British voiceover artist for nearly 20 years.
My voice has been heard around the world including in work for the BBC, Microsoft, Samsung, and Lego.
I am often complimented on my ability to take direction well.
If you need an engaging and skilled voice for your project, I look forward to hearing from you.

Young and Upbeat
Cool and Dynamic
Formal and Professional
Available for Both Northern Accents and RP (Universal British) Accents
My native accent is a kind of hybrid of the Derbyshire accent and Cheshire accent. When speaking in my native accent I sound like a bloke somewhere near Manchester.
Northern Accent Demo
In 2011, I moved to London and I learnt to Southernise my vowel sounds to also speak with an RP (Received Pronunciation) English accent.

I have narrated videos for thousands of clients and brands from across the world. Whatever you’re looking for — whether it’s adverts, explainer videos, eLearning, medical voiceovers or anything else — I have the skills and expertise to deliver!

I am a professional audiobook narrator and stage actor with the ability to create and perform many characters. I have audiobooks available through reputable publishers and I perform live, in front of theatre audiences.
Sound skills
I am an experienced sound engineer and music producer. If you need audio editing, post-production, or bespoke music for your project, think of me as a one-stop shop! I have written and produced music used on hundreds of adverts, including for RyanAir and ASDA.
“I’ve known Josh for over 3 years and have always found him a pleasure to work with. He takes direction really well and I always get the read that I’m after. Whether it’s a natural, conversational style to an edgy club read or anything in between, Josh delivers the goods every time.”
“Josh is a consummate professional. After our first call I felt very comfortable and it was a great experience working together. The client directed and everyone was happy with the result. I would be happy to recommend Josh for his work.”

From my top-quality home studio I record voiceovers every weekday and I pride myself on being available to record quickly. I can turnaround most scripts the same day. Please get in touch if I can be of help with your project.
