Search - Miriam Stockley :: Second Nature

"South African-born Miriam Stockley has a star-studded resume a mile long, but why mention Tina Turner [and] David Bowie when you were also called in to hit notes for lesser talents like Nicole Kidman (in Moulin Rouge)? Stockley returns with another magnificent mix of styles that evoke Finnish nights, African plains, Peruvian Andes and all the joy of Enya, Sarah Brightman and Miriam Makeba rolled into one...essentially, there are so many instrumental and vocal textures that words can't quite do this mosaic justice. `Beautiful' and `excitingly exotic' is simply a good start to the flow of adjectives." - ALL MUSIC GUIDE Given the list of artists British singer Miriam Stockley has worked with - Tina Turner, Elton John, George Michael, Freddie Mercury, Chaka Khan, David Bowie, Seal and Adiemus - you may be surprised that you haven't heard her name before. One of the most distinctive voices in music, Stockley has sung on more hit records and had more success than most artists achieve in a lifetime. One of the most thriving British singers of the past 20 years, she has sung on such popular soundtracks as The Lord of the Rings (on which she sang a solo in Elvish) and Harry Potter. Now, we are proud to present her solo album Second Nature, a brilliant disc full of perfect atmospheres, African influences and Stockley's pure vocals.
