The voice over industry in Kenya is growing exponentially. Since the advent of the COVID 19 pandemic, Kenyans started seeking alternative ways of income generation. These side hustles have seen a boom in the sort of ‘hidden’ voice over industry. It is out of that the Young Kenyan Voice Talent Community was born.
Voice over is simply a piece of narration in a film or broadcast, not accompanied by an image of the speaker.

The group has a diverse vocal range and its members are very versatile.
