BABScon is scooping up all the Friendship is Magic singers this year! Head on down below the break for the presser if you want to meet them.
About the only way we could possibly have gotten BABSCon to sing any more sweetly than it already has this year was to invite two of the most melodious voices in all of My Little Pony…in their debut appearance at BABSCon, please welcome Kazumi Evans and Shannon Chan-Kent!
Bronies know Kazumi as the singing voice of Rarity and Luna, and the speaking (and singing!) voices of lead siren Adagio Dazzle in Equestria Girls – Rainbow Rocks, plus Octavia, Moondancer, and Roseluck. Animation fans will also recognize her as the voice of Skipper in the Barbie and Her Sisters series, Iris in LoliRock, and Amanda in Dr. Dimensionpants.
Shannon, meanwhile, is the singing voice of Ponyville’s party planner, Pinkie Pie, on My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, as well as the speaking voices of Silver Spoon and Smolder the dragon. In the recent Equestria Girls – Forgotten Friendship, she voiced the villainous Wallflower Blush. You might also know her as Misa Amane in the English dub of Death Note, both Biskit Twins in Littlest Pet Shop, and Trixie in Slugterra. She’s also appeared on screen in shows including The Crossing and the Freeform adaptation of Misfits.
Kazumi and Shannon join Tabitha St. Germain, Maurice LaMarche, Rebecca Shoichet (completing the trio of MLP’s “singing voice of…” VAs), Nicole Dubuc, Brian Hohlfeld, Tony Fleecs, and Sara Richard so far among our Guests of Honor.
So register now to make beautiful music with us this April 19-22, and book your hotel room. Don’t forget that our remaining sponsor-level packages will give you a truly premium experience, so snap them up while they last!
