Harvey got his start musically learning country classics on the guitar as a small boy. His first gig came at the age of ten, and by his school years he was performing rock covers at a club when he was discovered and went off on tour as support for
Tania Kernaghan. In 1998 Harvey won his first
Country Music (CMAA) Award for 'Vocal Collaboration of the Year' with Tanya Self for "Drive Away". In 2001 he won another CMAA Award for 'Vocal Collaboration of the Year' this time with
Beccy Cole, Darren Coggan and
Felicity, for "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind". In 2002, Harvey won two CMAA Awards; 'Album of the Year' and 'Male Vocalist of the Year' for ''Workin' Overtime''. In 2004, Harvey won a second CMAA Award for 'Male Vocalist of the Year' that year. In 2013, Harvey collaborated with
Troy Cassar-Daley to record
The Great Country Songbook, which debuted at number 2 on the
ARIA Charts. ==Discography==
