Orlessa Altass
Urban London sound. Full, grounded, confident voice. Positive, bright and upbeat. Commands respect but not hard.
Superb African & Jamaican accents. Born & lived in Jamaica then moved to London. Very true and natural Jamaican accent but speaks with a cool London accent when in the UK.
Does a reliable Ghanaian/West African.
