Harrison formed his own band, thenewno2, in 2006. In 2017, Harrison released his debut solo album In Parallel. The 2019 film In///Paralive showcases the live version of the album. Harrison's 2019 single, "Motorways (Erase It)", was described by Rolling Stone as "a psychedelic track with a robust beat". Harrison's music collaborations span a diverse range of genres that have seen him tour with Eric Clapton, appear on the Wu-Tang Clan track "The Heart Gently Weeps", and join Pearl Jam live on stage several times over the years. One of Harrison's notable collaborations was in 2004 at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, where he appeared alongside Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, and Prince on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"; the song was performed to mark the posthumous induction of his father.
In 2013, Harrison launched his career as a composer. Alongside his writing partner Paul Hicks, Harrison scored the Warner Bros. movie Beautiful Creatures. In 2018, Harrison and Hicks received a nomination for Best Music Score at the International Documentary Association Awards for their work on the Sundance Film Festival award-winning documentary Matangi/Maya/M.I.A.
