There are multiple artists called Voltaire: 1. Voltaire (born 1967 in Havana, Cuba) is a singer/songwriter whose music has its roots deeply embedded in European folk music, but also has influences from the gothic scene. He has also been directing commercials and animating short films for ten years, and is best known for his Hieronymus Bosch-inspired station IDs for MTV.
