Barbara Fernandez has many voices (not just in her head).

Barbara Fernandez is a standup comedian, voiceover artist, video presenter and singer…sometimes all at once!

How it began

She started performing as a child in end-of-year school dance recitals. Barbara would sing Judy Garland songs armed with a feather boa and then tapdance in circles around the stage. Many musical productions and plays followed. Her favorite was Company! where she got to sing The Ladies Who Lunch (probably one of her favorite songs of all time).

She began a professional singing career in Paris, France (because what else do you do if you don’t want to become a New York waitress while waiting for your acting break?) Her first royalty check came from a French song L’Amour de la Francophonie (The Love of the French Language which frankly doesn’t sound as cool in English). Surprisingly, the song was a big hit in nightclubs in Japan (go figure). She’d put a clip here, but this was BEFORE THE INTERNET (sigh). Before social media…before mobile phones…when you had to have a record company to be able to do anything. Nothing was digital – she has her first record…on a cassette tape(!)

Where she is now

Today she combines a comedy career with making videos where she gets all enthusiastic in front of the camera (easy for her). Barbara Fernandez has made cat vlogs with her furry costar Sponge and created UGC ads for video games (yes there are video games for ladies her age). Barbara also lends her voice to podcasts such as the SOL CBD podcast (all about weed, yeah), and e-learning videos. Her favorite is Kobi where young children learn math (thank goodness she didn’t write the scripts, or no one would learn how to count anything). Barbara Fernandez is also known for recording audiobooks on personal development, religion and spirituality. If you knew Barbara, you’d say Oh the irony!

Barbara is also a passionate advocate for mental health, as hers has been up, down, and all-around from a very early age (but that’s a story for another time).
