About

Martin Buchanan is an accomplished performer with years of corporate and broadcast experience. He was one of the UK's first video jockeys when, for several years, he presented his own show on the pan European pop TV
satellite channel ‘Music box'. The programme garnered a huge following in Holland and Scandinavia.

A spell hosting a nightly programme with Radio Luxembourg followed before he headed home to become part of the presenting team at Capital Gold. He was also the voice behind Sky TV's ‘Sale of the Century' and BBC 1's Going for
Gold.

Following time at London's Melody FM, Martin stayed on when the station became Magic 105.4. He went on to present drive time for five years– a show that became one of the most listened to commercial radio programmes in
town.

While at Magic FM, Martin regularly hosted Disney live events including the ‘Disney on Ice' spectaculars at Wembley. He wa sthe ‘Voice of God' for several years at the Independent radio news awards sponsored by Sky.

Martin also has considerable live and recorded TV promo and continuity experience - including time spent with GMTV (voicing those ‘tricky' competitions!) BBC, Sky Movies, Discovery and the Disney Channel.

He was the voice of the Barclays ATP tennis finals at the 02 playing to a live audience of 36,000 a day and a television audience of 100 million + around the world via the BBC and Sky.

Martin has a lovely rich tone that engages the audience and his voice feels familiar and friendly yet confident and strong.

In 2023, Martin starred in the Sky comedy series ‘Romantic Getaway’ alongside Katherine Ryan and Romesh Ranganathan.

His current voiceover portfolio includes work for many corporate and commercial clients mainly recorded from his home studio from where he also produces high profile radio documentaries for the BBC World Service.
