Early years

Daryl Braithwaite and his twin brother, Glenn, were born in Melbourne, Australia, on January 11, 1949, and raised in a working-class family. In the mid-1950s, his father, a plumber, worked on the Snowy Mountains Scheme. Braithwaite attended Punt Road State School and Christ Church Grammar in South Yarra, where the twins performed in the school choir. "I will always remember the agony of my first solo in the choir's 'Hark the Herald Angels Sing'," he said when the choir's leader, Leonard Fullard, gave me a note and then I was on my own. It was scary." Braithwaite was in the same class as Olivia Newton-John in 1961.

In 1963, his family moved to Coogee, Sydney's beach-side suburb, where he attended Randwick Boys High School until the end of year 10. He began a fitter-and-turner apprenticeship, which he started in 1969, but decided that this wasn't the right career for him and pursued a musical career instead. He performed in various local pop music bands, first with Bright Lights in 1967, which included Bruce Worrall on bass guitar. Both Braithwaite and Worrall were in House of Bricks and then Samael Lilith, and eventually in Samael.

Sherbet, a pop band that had already released a single titled "Crimson Ships," joined him in March 1970 at the age of 21. Dennis Laughlin on lead vocals (Downtown Wood Band), Doug Rea on drums (Downtown Roll Band), John Clive Jones on lead guitar and vocals (Clapham Junction), Dennis Laughlin on lead guitar and vocals (Downtown Roll Band), and Danny Taylor on drums (Downtown Rock Band). They earned a six-day residency at Disco in Jonathon, where they spent seven hours a night, four days a week. Braithwaite was hired as the company's second lead vocalist, but Rea was fired within a few months, and former bandmate Worrall replaced Rea on bass guitar.

"Can You Feel It, Baby," Sherbet's second album, "Can You Feel It" baby. On the Go-Set singles chart, Braithwaite's gritty-but-polished lead vocals made the group's first national Top-40 hit in 1991. Sherbet were "one of the country's top bands over the next ten years," according to Australian musicologist Ian McFarlane, and Braithwaite rose to national prominence as their lead singer. His soul-inspired vocals and the group's pop styling were featured on a number of singles and albums throughout the 1970s; they had an additional 19 hits on the national charts in the decade.

Braithwaite's career began in parallel with his work in Sherbet. He appeared in the Australian musical theatre revival of the Who's rock opera Tommy in March 1973. He dropped his debut single, a cover version of "You're My World," in October of the following year, amid unfounded rumors that he was leaving Sherbet. I have been waiting for three weeks. By mid-1975, the song had been rated gold and sold over 90,000 copies in Australia.

"Cavalry" (August 1975), his Sherbet bandmate Tony Mitchell's next album, was co-written. On the Kent Music Report singles chart, 13 of the songs are on the list. "Cavalry" has been a hit among Braithwaite's hits; most of his charting songs, as his contemporary John Farnham, have been interpreteds of material collected by others. "Old Sid" (written by Warren Morgan) and "Time" (by Eric Kaz and Libby Titus) were two more top-20 hits followed by Braithwaite, who co-wrote with Morgan (February 1977). Ronnie Lane and Steve Marriott's song "Afterglow (Of Your Love), originally released by the Small Faces in October 1977, was his next single. He was named King of Pop for three years from 1975 to 1977 at the Television Week King of Pop Awards.

Braithwaite's solo recordings from 1974 to 1978 appeared only on 7-inch singles. Daryl Braithwaite... Best Of" was his first album of his singles, and it was released on Razzle Records/Festival Records in 1978. Out on the Fringe, his debut solo studio album, came out in the following year, at a time when Sherbet had briefly failed. With Steve Kipner and Terry Shaddick, he recorded the album in the United States.

The Sherbet members had returned to together in 1980 and had renamed themselves The Sherbs. Braithwaite's solo career was put on hold to concentrate on his bandmates at this point. Despite this, the Sherbs had only had a few minor hits and broke up in 1984.

Braithwaite's debut album Edge in April 1988 was released. This album had a much more mature contemporary sound than Braithwaite's previous work, and it had four hit singles that brought him back to the Australian singles charts after a decade absence. "As the Days Go By" and "All I Do" were two of these hits written by Canadian songwriter Ian Thomas; a third, "One Summer," was a Braithwaite original.

Braithwaite went on to have a string of solo hits in the early 1990s, including the Australian No. 89. Jones and Walter Becker's "The Horses" is the front page of a Rickie Lee Jones album. At No. 1, he made his first appearance as a solo artist in the United States. "Higher Than Hope," a 1991 film co-wrote with Simon Hussey, is 47. Braithwaite's Rise album had become Australia's best-selling album of the year by the end of 1991, and Edge had become Sony Music Australia's best-selling album to date. In Australia alone, the album has sold over 300,000 copies.

Braithwaite formed Company of Strangers in 1992, and he continued to collaborate with Jef Scott, Simon Hussey, and James Reyne. "Motor City (I Get Lost)" was Braithwaite's lead or co-lead vocals on four of the album's tracks, as well as two Australian top 40 hits. (No. 26), 1992) and "Daddy's Gonna Make You a Star" (No. (1997), 35, 1993).

His comeback was somewhat stifled by a 1992 lawsuit in which his former executives sued Braithwaite for back-pay owing. Braithwaite's suit was a success, and Braithwaite was essentially compelled to fork over all the money he earned from Edge and Rise as well as a swish of the salt's sales; and, after his 1994 best-of-collection was sold, Braithwaite was dropped by his record company. He hasn't released another album in 12 years.

He was a member of A Current Affair's "Kokoda Challenge" in 1996, where he travelled to Papua New Guinea and traced the footsteps of Australian Diggers to mark the conclusion of World War II, 51 years ago. During the war, his own father was stationed in Papua New Guinea, and he wanted to see what he had endured. It was the most difficult challenge he'd encountered: "I was determined to make it," he said. But it was really, really difficult."

Braithwaite performed regularly in the interim, and in 1997, he returned to the Melbourne stage of Chess. He also returned to frequent touring with a reunited Sherbet from 1999 to 1999.

Braithwaite appeared on James Reyne's album "The Euphonious Whale" after more than a decade away from the recording studio. Snapshot, Braithwaite's latest studio album, debuted later this year. It contained four songs co-written by Braithwaite, including "See You Around Sometime," which was written with Mark Seymour and had previously been released by Seymour for his album One Eyed Man.

Braithwaite performed on two new Sherbs tracks that were specially recorded for a greatest-hits compilation, The Sherbs' first new recordings in 22 years. Braithwaite continued his solo career with the 2008 release of The Lemon Tree, an album of acoustic reworkings of solo and Sherbet hits, as well as a few covers.

On the soap opera Neighbours, Braithwaite performed "One Summer" in 2007.

Sony Music Australia recalled Braithwaite in 2013. "Daryl is a symbol of the Australian music industry, and we are delighted to welcome him home to Sony Music," CEO Denis Handlin said in a tweet. Forever the Tourist, He recorded his first album of new music since 2005. The lead single, "Not Too Late," was featured. The album reached its high point at 47 points.

Braithwaite was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame by Jimmy Barnes at the ARIA Music Awards of 2017. Days Go By, Sony Music Australia's latest collection that debuted at No. 1, coincides with the No. 1st. 5.
