Michael Schwalbe is a lot of things: Voice actor. Singer. Director. Writer. Often called the "vocal chameleon," less-often called the "Themperor." He has performed as many as 60+ roles for a single game more than once, and can be heard in over a dozen AAA video games (well over a hundred games and anime in total), in addition to numerous commercial and corporate campaigns for clients like Toyota, McDonalds, Staples, and many, many more.
Graduating with a Bachelor's degree in Music Business from Belmont University, Michael then spent several years working at a division of Warner Music Nashville while continuing his vocal pursuits. Eventually, his talents started opening up doors at Warner, culminating in voicing Blake Shelton's 2013 CMA promotional campaign, directly leading to the start of his voiceover and voice-casting business What He Said Voiceovers, LLC.
Eleven years later, Michael has won a SOVAS award for Outstanding National Commercial Voiceover, directed many hundreds of hours of sessions, and acted in many more. He is represented nationally by AVO Talent. He loves gaming and hiking with his wife Courtney, an accomplished vocal teacher and opera singer herself, curating his multiple collections of interesting doodads, and basking in playlists of the world's most eclectic music.
