The Voicey Awards are unique in being the only awards ceremony devoted entirely to honoring vocal professionals across various disciplines. The event features nine esteemed categories, including Best Male Voice, Best Female Voice, Best New Voice, Best Child Voice, Best Teen Voice, Best Voice Team, Best Foreign Voice, Best Personal Branding, and Lifetime Achievement.

Similar to other prestigious awards like the Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars, which celebrate actors and filmmakers, the Voicey Awards commend voice actors, podcasters, singers, and other vocal talents for their yearly contributions to the expansive field of vocal arts.

These vocal professionals are enlisted for their specialized vocal abilities to complete a wide array of projects. This includes but is not limited to radio and TV commercials, promotional videos, movie trailers, audio book narrations, podcasts, musical recordings, animations, video games, and telephone services. They are the invisible yet unforgettable voices that fill our lives across multiple platforms.

The Genesis of the Voicey Awards

Sponsored by VoiceyAwards.com, the initial 2007 Voicey Awards featured a panel of three expert judges, each representing different facets of the vocal arts industry. These included vocal coach and former talent agent Lisa Roberts, acclaimed voice artist and author Tim Harrison, and San Francisco-based producer Karen Smith, who is also a voice actor. Since its inception, the Voicey Awards have evolved to include one specialized judge per category to better represent the diverse range of vocal talents.
