Ryan Colt Levy’s Path from Music to Voice Acting

Long before microphones and character sheets, Ryan Colt Levy spent over a decade fronting the indie band BRAEVES, touring as a singer and guitarist. A move to Los Angeles in 2015 opened the door to theater and film work, and improv classes soon led him into recording booths. By his own account, the transition stuck because he found voice work more rewarding than on-camera acting, and by 2019 the medium had become his primary focus.
