Nathan Lowe “officially” began his voice-over career in 1999 doing college radio. Unofficially, he has been fascinated by voices, dialects, characters, and accents all his life. From the time he was at least 5, Nathan was either embarrassing his folks by trying to imitate relatives or people he heard in the street, or driving them crazy wearing out old Disney records by listening to them over and over... and over, mesmerized by the sound of the actors’ voices and the wonderful, crazy things they made their vocal apparatus do — and wanting to do the same.
Nathan also started singing from an early age, first in choirs, and thru college on a music scholarship. In these vocal performances, he learned the voice’s capacity to deliver powerful messages, in a way that he didn’t understand from cartoons. Added to this mix was his time in and around theatre, and from these various sources, Nathan grew to understand the fun, influence and true artistry of this wonderful craft.
Fast forward to a move to Los Angeles, a stint at KFI radio, the opportunity to train with respected voice coaches, and to voice for KCRW, The National Geographic Channel, Walmart, ADP, and more.
Nathan is currently represented by Rockstar Entertainment in Los Angeles, which is proud to be associated with the VO Agent Alliance.
