Tree's body was transported back to California by June 21, and his memorial service will be livestreamed on July 25 from the UCSC Quarry Amphitheater in Santa Cruz (pictured in 2021) 'due to limited space for family and friends'

The genre-defying musician's final social media post was an Instagram story of himself in a recording studio on Saturday alongside music producers Victor Wao and Lucas Frota

The wig-loving Joyride star had only performed four dates of his 67-date The World's First World Tour, which was in support of his fourth studio album Love You Madly Hate You Badly.

Tree ominously told The Zach Sang Show earlier this year that when he died 'all the money's gonna go back to artists. So I've set up a foundation. It's called Dr. Oliver Tree's Art Grants for Baby Geniuses.'

The CalArts grad's family has since confirmed his philanthropic plans in a statement: 'We will make sure his wish comes to fruition so that more joy, love and art can be spread into the world, that was his final wish.'
