Harvey Parker's Spotify playlist was as diverse and exciting as their personality, with music of classical, hip-hop, and jazz. However, 14 months after their suicide, their mother Amanda is still unable to bear the thought of listening to it. When they went missing, young musicians who had never even met them, united in their distress and launched a social media campaign to search for them. In line with this, a charity concert will be held next month, to raise awareness and funds for mental health support for marginalised creatives such as Harvey. Amanda, an arts and cultural consultant from Lambeth, London, says that the concert is in line with her child's passion for helping others. It will feature a performance from the National Children's Orchestra and the junior section of the Chineke! Orchestra, which Harvey was a part of, in addition to Clean Bandit, the Westminster School choir, and prodigy Sheku Kanneh-Mason.

The music that Harvey Parker loved most is featured on a Spotify playlist full of classical, hip-hop and jazz, reflecting the diversity and excitement of the late musician's personality. 14 months after their passing, their mother Amanda is still unable to listen to it. On December 17, Harvey left Heaven nightclub in London and was later found in the Thames on January 4. In those weeks between, their family searched for Harvey, and a social media campaign to find them was launched. To honor their memory and help other marginalised creatives, a charity concert is being held next month, supported by actor Sir Mark Rylance, among other volunteers. Amanda, an arts and cultural consultant, explains that the concert was created as a response to a Just Giving Campaign in Harvey's name, and will feature performances from the National Children's Orchestra, Clean Bandit, the Westminster School Choir, and Chineke! prodigy Sheku Kanneh-Mason.
