Rowland Myers and the team

Infosound Audio Services comprises professional readers, broadcasters and actors and is run by former BBC Radio Producer, Presenter and Programme Organiser Rowland Myers who has worked for over thirty years in broadcasting and the audio industry as a consultant, trainer, manager, broadcaster, voice artist and provider of audio services and solutions.

Armed with an honours degree in Electronic Engineering and his own set of screwdrivers, Rowland actually started his professional career as an engineer with the BBC at Broadcasting House in London.

His love of radio, and the generous support of colleagues along the way, led Rowland to enjoy a wide variety of jobs in different areas of the Corporation with, he says, his time in Local Radio the most rewarding.

Blessed with the perfect face for radio, he jumped the fence from working behind the microphone to imposing himself upon the listener and, as a Presenter, was a Sony Radio Award runner-up (just as well, really, as he hadn't prepared an acceptance speech).

Rowland went on to become a radio Producer and Programme Organiser before leaving the BBC to set up his own audio production company, attracting clients from the worlds of broadcasting, show business and conferencing as well as significant corporates such as the Institute of Directors and BT.

Working alongside charities such as RNIB, Guide Dogs and Action for Blind People, his business later evolved to also produce audio for the benefit of the two million blind and partially-sighted people in the UK who can't access the printed word. Rowland chaired a consortium of national charities promoting digital audio formats to those who live with sight loss and is now Subject Lead in audio for the UK Association for Alternative Formats.

Rowland has trained producers and presenters for the BBC and for Community and Hospital Radio. He has media-trained staff in businesses and charities that need to get their message across to the public and has taught journalism, production and presentation skills to those wishing to embark on, or continue, a career in 'the media'.

Embracing everything that has gone before, Rowland now heads up Infosound Audio Services, enabling him to work creatively with all aspects of the live and recorded spoken word.

Rowland still has his own set of screwdrivers.
