[edit] Biography

Stuermer was born on November 27, 1952 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Discovered playing with his Milwaukee band Sweetbottom, Stuermer auditioned for and won a spot backing up jazz violinist Jean-Luc Ponty in 1975, with whom Stuermer recorded four albums. In late 1977, Stuermer on insistence of friend Alphonso Johnson was recommended as a replacement for Steve Hackett, he joined up with Genesis as touring guitarist and bass player at first and retained that position until 1992. In 1982, Stuermer followed Genesis front man Collins as the lead guitarist for the rock star's solo career. In doing so, he went from what Collins called a "permanent-temporary-part-time member" of Genesis to a "permanent-touring-recording member" of Collins' new group. The collaboration has been a successful one for both musicians, and Stuermer has earned co-writer credits on several of Collins' songs.

Stuermer has recorded five solo albums, Steppin' Out, Live and Learn, Another Side of Genesis, Waiting in the Wings, and most recently Retrofit. Released in 2002 was a Sweetbottom live reunion album, recorded at Shank Hall in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He is a graduate of St. Francis High School in St. Francis, Wisconsin, and returned to his hometown in the summer of 2002 to play a free concert.

His latest album, Go!, is scheduled for release in early 2007. The new album contains many older track from Daryl's Sweetbottom days. The tracks scheduled for the new album are Striker, Masala Mantra, Greenlight, Dream In Blue, Breaking Point, Urbanista, Heavy Heart, Meltdown, The Archer, and Omnibus. Meltdown has appeared recently in live performances as "L.A. Meltdown." "Urbanista" is new recording of "Urban Island." Alphonso Johnson will be appearing on the new album, along with Kostia, John Calarco, and Eric Hervey.
