At the age of eleven, Stockley and her older sister Avryl formed a group, the Stockley Sisters. Later in her life, she moved to London to further pursue her musical career. There, she contributed vocals to several albums, and TV commercials. She sang some songs in African and had some African Instrumental songs in her albums.
During the late eighties and early nineties, Stockley worked as a session singer for the UK song writing and production trio; Stock, Aitken and Waterman. Stockley featured on tracks by the likes of Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan and Sonia. Alongside fellow session singer Mae McKenna, Stockley is credited with being partly responsible for the distinctive Stock, Aitken and Waterman sound of the eighties.
Stockley provided backing vocals for the United Kingdom's Eurovision Song Contest entry on several occasions, most notably with Emma in 1990 and for Katrina and the Waves when they won in Dublin in 1997.
In 1991, Stockley became a part of the dance group Praise whose single "Only You" reached number two on the UK charts. Later, she was the vocalist for Adiemus with Karl Jenkins. In 1992 she performed as a backing vocalist at The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert, which was broadcast live to 1 billion people worldwide from the Old Wembley Stadium.
Stockley has been featured on several film soundtracks, including her cover of the Rose Royce song "Wishing on a Star", which appears on The 10th Kingdom soundtrack.
Currently, Miriam Stockley joins Richard Gannaway and Jay Oliver as a primary member of the world/new age group, AOMUSIC. She first appeared on their 2009 CD release, "Twirl", which included the song, "On Jai Ya "; composed as theme music for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. She, Gannaway and Oliver composed and produced AOMUSIC's 2011 album "...and Love Rages On". Her vocal technique on AOMUSIC albums is often reminiscent of the style and spirit in her first Adiemus album with Karl Jenkins, "Songs of Sanctuary".
Her song, "Perfect Day", was a theme song for a series of children's films called 'The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends' in 1997, based on the famed stories by Beatrix Potter. The song was written by Colin Towns. She has also appeared as a singer on several BBC school's programmes most notably Look and Read.
In February 2011 Arcturian Gate released the AO Music's third album ...and Love Rages on!, where Stockley's voice is joined by children's choral ensembles from Beijing, Tbilisi, Johannesburg, Asheville and Orlando (charted at No. 2 internationally and awarded Zone Music Reporter's "Best World Album of 2011"). With the release of "...and Love Rages on!", Miriam and AO Music aligned with HavServe under GlobalGiving to build sustainable villages for the children of Haiti who were displaced by an earthquake in 2010.[17] On 28 March 2011, she was invited to give a private performance for the Education Without Borders International conference in Dubai.
In March 2013 the AO Music group released Hokulea, which charted #3 internationally and sustained top 20 ranking (Zone Music Reporter) for five consecutive months. With the release of "Hokulea" AO Music officially established themselves as 100% non-profit through AO Foundation International, supporting several world organizations that attend to disadvantaged children. Stockley was also credited on the Hokulea co-producer.
