  • The Music That Made Mitch Brown
    Dec 16 2025

    This week we’re fully fanning out with former AFL player Mitch Brown and getting to know the music that made him!


    Earlier this year, Mitch made history as the first male AFL player to publicly come out as bisexual in the league’s 129-year history. Since then, many of us have felt like we’ve gotten to know him on a deeper, more human level but now it’s time to go even further, through the music that shaped him.

    From school discos to solo loungeroom sessions with his Discman, and the lasting influence of David Bowie, Mitch takes us through the songs, artists and moments that helped him make sense of the world and himself <3
