John recorded a VO for promotional video for a client of ours. He was incredibly personable, and his performance stood out to the team for the unique voice he could bring to the project. John was flexible, and fast, and we're excited to work with him again.
Marissa Nihill - Clinical Education Platform
John did a corporate commercial voice over for us and it sounded amazing. Very fair price with tremendous results. Very active and easy to get a hold of - guy is willing to work. I would suggest him to anyone and we will be using him for more in the near future.
Robert Kempf - Director of Marketing at Ardisam
John provided a fantastic custom audition. We selected him out of 77 other submissions. Delivered an outstanding performance. Killed it. Responded to direction like a pro. Like an artist. Was enthusiastic. Worked quickly, on a hyper-fast turnaround. Communication great. Fun!
Rhett Dunlap - Executive Producer + Writer / American Dream Studios /Voice 123
Working with John Rowles was an ideal experience. I’ve been producing scripted, narrative-driven podcasts since the Fall of 2019, and John possesses all of the qualities I look for when hiring actors and voiceover artists: talent, kindness, speed, professionalism, and extremely high-fidelity deliverables (courtesy of his own home recording studio). These traits not only make my job easier but more fun. While John takes direction exceptionally well – and is more than happy to explore creativity – it is rarely needed as his instincts are spot-on. I hope you have the opportunity to collaborate with him.
Jim Penola – Writer, Producer, Host: An Invitations Productions / Backstage
John brought my book to life with a friendly, conversational, and professional voice. He is easy to work with and ensured the final product was exactly what I wanted.
