Mike Brady Mike Brady Mike Brady Keynote Speaker Entertainer

Mike Brady AM is one of Australia’s most acclaimed and enduring entertainers.
Whether solo or with his band, he has been wowing audiences both young and old with his songs and stories for decades.

From the heady days of the 60’s with his band MPD LTD and their enormous #1 smash hit ‘Little Boy Sad’, through to his time in Vietnam entertaining US forces, followed by solo hits like ‘Sympathy’ and of course the sporting anthems which have become part of the Aussie football language. ‘Up There Cazaly’ was the biggest ever Australian hit at that time and ‘One Day in September’ was hugely successful.

But there is a lot more to Mike than sporting anthems.
He is the writer of some of Australia’s most catchy advertising jingles for radio and television and his huge success in this area is evidenced by many of his music tracks which are still on television and radio today. He has remained relevant for generations.

As a speaker and performer, Mike’s solo presentations combine humor and music in an entertaining way to illustrate what has been a lifetime jam-packed with highs and lows but with very little down time, he takes the audience on an emotional musical journey through his music and stories, performing his hit songs described by many as “beyond our expectations”.

In June 2013 Mike was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for services to the community and to music as a composer and performer.

On Monday 3rd July 2017 Mike was honored to be named Victorian of the Year in a ceremony in the Melbourne Town Hall and on 7th November 2019 Mike was both thrilled but humbled when ‘Up There Cazaly’ was inducted into the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia 2019 Sounds of Australia registry.

…was born in England and moved with his family to Australia when he was 11 years old. His recording career began in the mid 60’s with the formation of MPD Ltd (Mike, Pete & Danny). MPD
Ltd went on to become one of Australia’s most successful pop groups of the 60’s with hits such as ‘Little Boy Sad’. The group toured overseas, including England and when MPD disbanded, Mike
toured extensively throughout Vietnam during the war. He continued to record the occasional solo single, one such single being the hit “Sympathy” which reached the National top 10.
From the 70’s onwards Mike spent the majority of his time building his career as a record producer and a producer and writer of some of Australia’s most catchy advertising jingles for television and
radio. One such jingle brought Mike back into the public spotlight. He was asked to write and record a promotional song for Channel Seven’s Football program. This song, being ‘Up There Cazaly’, went
on to be the biggest selling Australian single of all time, with sales in excess of 250,000 and has become the unofficial anthem of all Australian Rules Football Fans.
His song ‘One Day In September’ has become part of the Football language. He also co-wrote and produced Greg Champion’s huge hit ‘That’s What I Like About Football’.
It was during this period that Mike also formed his own Record Label and Record Production Company, Full Moon Records, and Publishing Company, Remix Publishing. Two hugely successful singles released by Full Moon were Mark Jackson’s ‘I’m An Individual’ and Joe Dolce’s ‘Shuddap You Face’. ‘Shuddap You Face’ broke the record previously held by Mike’s ‘Up There Cazaly’ as the biggest selling Australian single in history and has been translated into many different languages.
During the heady boom years of the 1980’s and early 1990’s Mike continued with his career as composer and songwriter. His huge success in this area is evidenced by many of his music tracks which are still on television and radio today.
Mike has recorded in the home of Country Music, Nashville Tennessee and then in July 2014 Mike returned to his ancestry along the bloodlines of his father and his fathers’ father. Over a 7 week
period in Ireland, he recorded ‘BLOODLINES’, The Australian Irish Story, which is a complete departure from anything you may have heard from him before.
In June 2013 Mike was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for services to the
community and to music as a composer and performer.
On Monday 3rd July 2017 Mike was honored to be named Victorian of the Year in a ceremony in the Melbourne Town Hall and on 7th November 2019 Mike was both thrilled but humbled when ‘Up There Cazaly’ was
inducted into the Sounds of Australia registry!
Mike continues with his public speaking engagements and live performances both solo and with his bands, ‘The Mike Brady Band’ and ‘Greenspot’.
