20世纪90年代初期，Praise在伦敦成立，乐队由三位比较有成就的音乐家组成，分别是演奏家 Simon Goldberg、Geoff McCormack和主唱Miriam Stockley。

Praise, formed in 1991 in London, England, were a new-age music group, comprising Geoff MacCormack, Simon Goldenberg and Miriam Stockley. The group was considered to be foundational in the genre of Ethnic Electronica.
Praise released one self-titled album in 1991, produced, engineered and mixed by Richard James Burgess. Praise combined European dance beats with a variety of traditional world samples and styles along with Miriam Stockley's vocals, in a manner that was continued by artists such as Enigma, Deep Forest and Adiemus (which also featured Stockley's vocals). The tracks segue using soundscape elements, and the album was one of the few ever to be mixed using Qsound which provided virtual surround sound out of a pair of stereo speakers. MacCormack and Goldenberg arranged and performed many of the instrumental parts, the latter providing the necessary computer programming. Stockley arranged and performed the lead and many backing vocals. All three have writing credits for Praise, and were supplemented by other specialised world performers.
"Only You", the second track from Praise, was used for a commercial for the Fiat Tempra. It was subsequently remixed by producers Andreas Georgiou (cousin of George Michael) and Peter Lorrimer, and went on to become a hit single, peaking at #4 in the UK Singles Chart, and featured in new-age compilation albums. Stockley's vocals for this track were sampled extensively in the 2000 dance track, "Fiji", by Atlantis, which peaked at #52 in the UK chart. In the same year, they released the single "Dream On".
Praise disbanded some time after Praise was released; Stockley went on to performing lead vocals in Karl Jenkins's Adiemus albums.
