LEAD VOCALS

Ian C. Temple is a native Brooklyn-born rock singer, voice teacher, union TV film tech (grip) and commercial voice talent, spokesman for multiple internationally renowned brands, past and present.

When he’s not recording commercial spots from his personal pro studio, working overtime on NBC primetime or rockin’ out with his three stellar tribute bands in NY and CA, he’s upgrading his old Mazda MX-5 or playing Magic: The Gathering with his hometown crew to make it through these lockdowns in high spirits.
