From the original announcement: “The Grammy Award-winning musician has been busy since the release of his last album with his collective thenewno2. In the past four years, Harrison has scored a handful of feature films, marking his big screen debut as a composer on Warner Bros.’s Beautiful Creatures, as well as Sir Ben Kinglsey’s 2015 critically acclaimed Learning to Drive. Harrison also scored four TV series including Tony Goldwyn and Richard LaGravenes’s The Divide, two seasons of the Paul Giamatti-executive produced show Outsiders, and Amazon’s original series, Good Girls Revolt.”
Listen to “All About Waiting,” the first single from the album.
The announcement notes: “Harrison is stepping out and making music for the first time under his own name. Echoing his influences over the past few years as a composer, Harrison’s new music paints a cinematic soundscape.”
