Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 27 (ANI/BusinessWire India): Just as the holiday season nears, singer-songwriter Thomson Andrews picks up the tempo with three Netflix releases.
The Mumbai based artist has lent his voice to Hollywood actor Keegan-Michael Key's character during his Hindi rendition song "Magic Man G" in the movie Jingle Jangle, directed by David E Talbert, a quintessential Christmas tale offering hope, love, and goodness with Key playing a leading role along with Forest Whitaker and Ricky Martin.

Thomson seems to strike a chord when it comes to voicing characters with his versatility. Sunayana Sarkar, the Vocal Director for Netflix's Jingle Jangle believes that Thomson brings that sweet mix of diction and genre authenticity that is required to successfully localize inter-national content for the Indian audience.
"Keegan-Michael's character is very comedic and animated. We needed someone who could match his energy, histrionics, and unbelievable tenor notes. And I knew that Thomson Andrews would be the perfect fit. His Hindi diction and RnB leanings brought out the vocal flavor that we desired," said Sunayana, who is also featured as a singer in Jingle Jangle.
His Christmas season collaboration is the Netflix release 'The Christmas Chronicles 2', a holiday blend of action, adventure, comedy, and some drama packed into one gift-wrapped package, directed by Chris Columbus starring Kurt Russell, Goldie HawnDarby CampyLending his voice in international blockbusters is not a new thing for Thomson.

"The holiday season has always been a special time for me. And working on these amazing projects was truly a fun and rewarding experience. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to collaborate with some of the biggest global stars and hope that people enjoy our work." Singer-Songwriter, Thomson Andrews.
