JONATHAN COTTON
Jonathan Cotton doesn't just do voices, he becomes them. From squeaky sidekicks to booming villains, Jonathan throws himself into every character with gusto. His background in Advertising Design and Musical Theater has given him a keen ear for nuance and a knack for bringing scripts to life. Off-mic, he's a devoted family man (and probably practices his character voices on his unsuspecting loved ones).
TESTIMONIALS
“Cotton is a dream to work with. His range of voices, characters, dispositions, and absolute commitment to nailing the perfect take are the best I’ve worked with. He’s completely willing to go out on a limb and try anything you suggest - and great fun to hang out with after you wrap. If you have the opportunity to work with him, seize it.”
“I’ve recorded tons of creative characters with this guy right here. Jonathan is a deeply talented voice actor. He goes all in to find the funny, touching, outrageous and wacky character traits to take writing to an even better place. Jonathan will end up on your permanent call sheet, he’s really that good. No ego, no drama always there and all in.

“What is uncanny about Jonathan is his spooky versatility.”
“Jonathan has a breadth of talent rarely found in a single individual. Write, voice, conceive, draw, sing — dude’s, like, a quintuple threat. Add him to any team and just like that, things just got ten times more interesting. And he has a heart the size of a whale.”
“Jonathan is intuitive, witty, and has the ability to tap into his creative talents quickly. I worked with Jonathan at a marketing agency and witnessed his positive energy and fun sense of humor drawing others in. He is a good friend and a talented human who brings light into any room he enters!”
“Like his name suggests, Jonathan Cotton is a natural blend of comfort, durability....and he’s not clingy. Jonathan’s ability to weave original character voices into the fabric of any story, be it animation or commercial copy should make any director breathe easy.
OK, I’ll lay off the Cotton references for now. This man is amazing. I’ve had the good fortune to utilize Jonathan’s incredible gifts for a radio commercial requiring a “Hillbilly.” The client called to say that when he played the spot at a company meeting it was met with a round of applause!
I highly recommend working with Mr. Cotton. (Plus...he’s hypoallergenic and has tremendous moisture control.)”
