Morro Bay, CA — The visionary electro-rock collective, The Surface Walkers, known for their high-energy performances and captivating sci-fi narrative, proudly announces the release of their powerful new single, “When You’re Alive.” Out now on all major streaming platforms, this track marks the second chapter from their highly anticipated forthcoming concept album, inviting listeners into a world where music and story intertwine.

Lyrically, “When You’re Alive” serves as a meditation on discovery, courage, and the fundamental human hunger to live authentically.

“This song is about waking up,” shares the band. “It’s about realizing that life isn’t about meeting expectations; it’s about finding your own rhythm, your own reasons to keep moving forward. It’s about what you do when you finally understand what it means to be alive.” Featuring evocative lines such as “Are you living inside of your dreams? / Is there more to this life than it seems?” and “Do you know what to do when you’re alive?”, the track builds towards an explosive finale, serving as a universal call to break free, to think, feel, and live with intention.
