Arlene Stockley (born 15 April 1962) is a British singer. She was born in
Johannesburg, South Africa, and her work is influenced by the African music of
her home country. Her distinctive vocalise style gained international acclaim
when Karl Jenkins launched the Adiemus project with Adiemus: Songs of Sanctuary,
with Stockley as the lead singer. At the age of eleven, Stockley and her older
sister Avril formed the group the Stockley Sisters and had a hit with a cover of
Shocking Blue's "Venus" in 1976 on the South African Top 30, ten years before
Bananarama's version. Later in her life, she moved to the United Kingdom,
settling in London to further pursue her musical career. There, she contributed
vocals to several albums and TV commercials. During the late 1980s and early
1990s, Stockley worked as a session singer for the songwriting and production
trio Stock, Aitken and Waterman, and appeared on tracks by 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 1980s
