Premier Christian Radio has hired a train conductor to voice its station imaging after bosses heard her reading out announcements on Southern Railway.
Paul Chantler was travelling on the 8:45am from Eastbourne to Victoria when he heard Kisteen OKane on the internal PA, and thought she had a good voice: I thought she had the most lovely, lilting Scottish accent which was confirmed to me when she came round to check the tickets, he told RadioToday.
After auditions, alongside professional voice-overs, Kirsteen was chosen to record Premiers station ident and will now become the voice of the station.
And the train conductor, who has been complimented on her voice from passengers before, says shed like to look into the possibilities of becoming a professional voice-over.
It would fit-in nicely with my plans to become a train driver, she said today. Im currently studying to be a driver and could achieve my goal within the next year.
Premier Christian Radios CEO, Peter Kerridge, said today; Kirsteens voice has a wonderfully calm, melodic tone with a natural clarity, so important for station recognition. Were delighted that our production team chose her to become the new voice of Premier Christian Radio.
