Rachael Metcalfe
“A tender, captivating voice with natural intimacy— expressive, engaging, and effortlessly alive in character.”
Have you written a story that's close to your heart? Let me bring it to your readers ears!
My name is Rachael and I'm an audiobook narrator from the UK. I live in the beautiful Peak District with my husband and our cat.
As a trained actor, my love for the written and spoken word developed at a young age. I began vocal training at age 8 and completed my Acting degree at The University of Chichester Conservatoire in 2019 and have performed on several stage and screen productions.
My voice is often described as youthful, feminine and raspy, with a mid level pitch.
My own accent is a midlands British accent, but I am able to confidently read in generic American, southern American, Scottish, British Cockney, Liverpudlian, and RP.
