Stermann and Grissemann met back in 1988 when they were working for ORF. In 1989 they joined Salon Helga on Hitradio Ö3 which they hosted until 1997. Thereafter they moved to the radio station FM4 and began hosting various shows such as Suite 16 and Blech oder Blume. Between 1995 and 2002 they provided the FM4 radio commentary for the Eurovision Song Contest. Between 1998 and 2011 they were regular radio hosts for the regional German radio station Radio Eins.

In 2002 Stermann & Grissemann attempted to represent Austria at the Eurovision Song Contest with the song Das schönste Ding der Welt, but they failed to get past the first round.

Two years later they also began hosting the late night talk show Willkommen Österreich. Since May 2008 they have hosted the comedy show Im Anschluss: Neues aus Waldheim on Sky Deutschland.
