Why choose English voice over from Sweden?
Scandinavian English carries a natural authority. The Nordic accent is widely perceived as clear, trustworthy and neutral enough for international audiences while retaining a distinctive character. For brands operating across European and global markets, a Swedish English voice offers a balance between native fluency and a recognisable point of origin.
With 41 years of experience recording for corporate, e-learning and commercial clients, I deliver English voice over that sounds natural and professional. My Stockholm studio is equipped for broadcast-quality recording, and I connect remotely via Source-Connect, Cleanfeed and Zoom for directed sessions from anywhere in the world.
Whether you are producing a global corporate video, localising e-learning content, or creating a campaign that needs a Scandinavian touch, I match the read to your brief and deliver clean files ready for post-production.

Frequently asked questions
What does a Nordic accent in English sound like?
A Nordic accent in English is characterised by clear enunciation, a slightly rounded vowel quality and a natural rhythm that differs from British or American English. It is widely perceived as trustworthy and neutral. The accent is subtle enough for international audiences but distinct enough to signal a Scandinavian origin, which can be a deliberate brand choice.
Can I direct the session remotely?
Yes. I support Source-Connect, Cleanfeed and Zoom for real-time directed sessions. Source-Connect provides broadcast-quality audio during the session. Cleanfeed is browser-based and requires no software on your end. You can listen, give direction and approve takes as if you were in the studio.
What time zone are you in, and how does that affect scheduling?
I am based in Stockholm, Sweden (CET/CEST, UTC+1 or UTC+2 in summer). This works well for European clients and overlaps with US East Coast mornings. Sessions can be scheduled across time zones – I am flexible with early mornings and evenings when needed.
What file formats do you deliver?
Standard delivery is broadcast-quality WAV (48 kHz / 24-bit) and/or MP3. I can deliver in other formats on request, including AIFF or specific loudness standards (EBU R128, for example). Files are named and organised to your specifications.
How is pricing structured for international clients?
Pricing is based on script length, usage rights and delivery timeline. You receive a fixed written quote in EUR, USD or SEK before any work begins. There are no hidden fees for file format, standard revisions or communication during the project. Invoicing follows Swedish VAT regulations, with reverse charge for EU B2B clients.
Do you also record in Swedish?
Yes – Swedish is my native language and the majority of my work is in Swedish. If your project requires both Swedish and English voice over from the same voice, I can record both in the same session, ensuring consistency across language versions. See my full service pages for Swedish corporate, e-learning and commercial voice over.
Need voice over for something else?
I also record for other formats and channels.
