What people are saying:

“Phil is the perfect combination of incredible talent and consummate professional.”

“…the best VO talent I have ever worked with.”

“Phil always makes me look good.”

“There are not enough words to describe the talent of Phil Crowley. And even if there were enough words, you can bet that Phil could fit them all in 30 seconds without sounding rushed and still enunciate them perfectly. Phil is the perfect combination of incredible talent and consummate professional. He’s one of those voice actors who asks for more takes because he thinks he can do it better. If you need a take 1.3 seconds faster, you’ll get it 1.3 seconds faster. And if you ask him to do it again the same way but this time could you add just a touch of a mid-Atlantic accent that’s more sophisticated than haughty but still with a smile? Well guess what, old sport: That’s precisely what you’ll get. It’s a testament to Phil’s versatility and skill that, even though I have worked with him on hundreds of commercials spanning well over a decade, I’m still surprised to learn that it’s his dulcet tones I’m hearing on some other ad or show. A talent like his has every right to be attached to an enormous ego, but not so with Phil. He takes direction with good humor and enthusiasm, always has fantastic suggestions, and will work until you are satisfied and your clients are ecstatic. I consider myself fortunate to hear him bring my spots to life. So I guess there are words to describe Phil’s talent, but just two: Hire him.”

“Phil Crowley is the best VO talent I have ever worked with. He is the consummate professional, with an incredible VO talent. When I was looking for the ‘Voice’ for Shark Tank, I listened to hundreds of VO talent demos looking for the perfect one. I needed a voice memorable that would be distinctive to our show but did not want an over-the-top, in-your-face voice that would overpower. A “In a world where…” type read would not fit what I was envisioning. From the moment I first heard it, Phil’s voice was perfect for Shark Tank, and the one I wanted. Phil is a master at voices. He has an unbelievable range with his voice. He understands direction perfectly and is so good with delivering the nuances needed to capture the mood/tone of the moment; energy, somber, smile, humor, he can do it all. He has an uncanny sense of timing, he can do a read one time, be told it needs to be a fraction of a second faster, and do the second read exactly to time. And of course, he can speak an almost unlimited number of words in a single breath! I believe all VO talent would also be good open water divers. And Phil is a contributor, he makes suggestions on copy changes and works as part of the team, trying to create the best possible end product. It has been an honor to work with Phil these 8 seasons on Shark Tank. A true gentleman and superbly talented individual.”

“I have always considered Phil Crowley to be one of the most talented artists in the performing world today. This extends from voice-over work through long-form television work and performing live on stage. Phil is a gentleman to work with, always giving the agency (and client) what they need and always exceeding the requirements of any given role. He always ‘pluses’ whatever project he is working on and is always a part of the creative process, giving viewpoints that may not have been considered before and, at the same time, taking direction perfectly. Phil’s range, from humor and, when required, his special kind of tongue-in-cheek cynicism (usually for commercials, theatrical engagements and animation) through dramatic and informational projects (revealed in his many works for The Discovery Channel, The History Channel, National Geographic, The Travel Channel, TNT, CNN, PBS and beyond), brings a warmth and gravitas to everything that he does. I always think of Phil first when casting any given project, having worked with him for over a decade. He was the primary Announcer for the Verizon-Wireless advertising that I produced over the years, in addition to many other projects that we worked on together. He is loved by the agency and by the client. Phil always makes me look good.”
