2015 Benztown 50 Voice Power Index Released

Benztown, an international radio imaging, production library, programming, jingles and voice-over services company and one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the U.S., has released its second annual Benztown 50 Voice Power Index, the radio industry’s exclusive ranking of the top 50 voiceover artists in the U.S. and Canada.

Benztown enlisted P1 Research to compile and analyze industry data that was the foundation for the ranking. This year, Benztown expanded the Voice Power Index beyond the United States to honor the signature voices of the Canadian radio market. Pat Garrett captured the #1 position as the top VO artist in the U.S. and Canada.

This year's Top 10:

1. Pat Garrett
2. Scott Fisher
3. John Willyard
4. Chad Erickson
5. Rachel McGrath
6. Harry Legg
7. Scott Matthews
8. Jeff Berlin
9. Cousin Deke
10. Chris Corley

There are 10 voiceover professionals making their debut on this year’s Benztown 50 Voice Power Index.

More than 373 U.S. and Canadian radio groups provided information for this prestigious annual list, which was analyzed and ranked by P1 Research’s proprietary algorhythm. The Benztown 50 ranking is based on several criteria, including number of radio station affiliates, station size and market.

Dave “Chachi” Denes, President of Benztown, said: “The value of outstanding voiceover to successful radio brands cannot be overstated. The very best voiceover professionals shape the listener experience and build distinctive audio brands that engage, captivate and entertain. As an industry leader in producing high quality radio voiceover, imaging and audio branding, we are proud to recognize our industry’s most accomplished and indelible voiceover talent across the U.S. and Canada. We congratulate and honor those talented individuals who comprise this year’s Benztown 50 Voice Power Index, and thank them for their distinguished contributions to the industry we all love.”

The following voiceover professionals comprise the 2015 Benztown 50 Voice Power Index. They will be honored at a reception next April at the Worldwide Radio Summit in Hollywood.
