What makes Narration Station productions unique? 

     Unlike most audiobook narrators who have limited audio engineering training, we are a mother/son team with professional-grade recording equipment, years of combined experience in the entertainment industry, and multiple audiobooks under our belts.  We do more than just read a book out loud.  Lorri is a seasoned actor, vocalist, and narrator.  Matt is also an experienced actor and audio engineer.

​

My Narration Station partners with Audiobook Creation Exchange (ACX) and Findaway Voices.  Our audiobooks are distributed to the Amazon Audible and Apple iTunes apps.
