Sem and Ally Adventures - Audiobook/Audiodrama Voice Cast

"An Audiobook With Heart From All Across The World! Every Character Has Their Own Voice."

Luke McKeel – Narrator

Lexington, KY

Your guide along the road from the dawn of man, to its darkest days, is the delightful voice of actor Luke McKeel. Through every twist and turn, high and low moment, Luke is the one who will be playing your heartstrings with all the precision of a professional violinist with his charming voice and storytelling talents.

“I first discovered my passion for acting in 2010, through staged readings of Shakespeare’s plays as part of my undergraduate studies in English literature. I have never been the same since. However, my journey as a voice actor did not begin until 2018, when I finally took the advice of many friends and colleagues to pursue a voice over career. Since then, I have had the wonderful opportunity to work on a handful of video games, audiobooks, and other independent projects. I am currently narrating audiobooks on a nearly full-time basis, and I cannot wait to discover the road that lies ahead as I pursue additional opportunities in both animation and video games.”

When not in the booth, Abigail loves re-watching Lord of the Rings, playing video games with her younger brother, fencing, and listening to audiobooks (not all at once, though that would be interesting).

My biggest passion is reaching out to show others that God loves them, and that even Christians can be cool without judging others haha!

Conner Miranda – Zip

Orcutt, California

“Hi there! My name is Connor Miranda, I was born and raised in sunny Orcutt, California. I’ve been doing voice over work for a few years now and found my love for it my second year of college. Originally I had planned to do computer programming but I turned out to be awful at it, hovered around for a but, and eventually I gravitated towards acting classes and now here I am! It was never a career I had envisioned for myself when I was younger, but now that I have it I love every second I get behind the microphone. I aspire to give back to others should I find great success in this career field, and to do the best job I can no matter what character I have to portray.”

Kyle Rhys Marsh – Twig

Northern Wales, UK

“I am from North Wales and am currently living in Warwickshire, England. I have been fascinated with voices and the people that do them for as long as I can remember. One of my biggest inspirations is my dad, who would tell me stories of Greek mythology, and voice the animals in nature documentaries to make me laugh as a boy. And of course my wife, who pushes me to be better every day. If not for her, I probably wouldn’t be on this journey.

When not voicing things and working at my day job, I enjoy video games, cycling and drinking lots of coffee.

If you would like to contact me, I can be reached at [email protected].”
