From the song cover of the National Anthem to a raw and authentic footage of the recording process for the track "Alive", viewers now understand Markcus better on an emotional level, and knows what he truly stands for on the path of music. Local singer/songwriter, Leon Markcus who took the music scene by storm in 2016 with his unique blend of alternative pop & electronic music, is now making a comeback with a new music video for "Alive" — directed by Alvin Ling and in collaboration with the National Arts Council, Noise Singapore and music producer Jeff Hue (NOISE AWARDEE 2015: CANVAS CONVERSATIONS).

The official music video features two friends struggling to overcome the harsh challenges faced in their personal lives, resulting in one individual attempting to take his own life. The video aims to stuck a chord in the hearts of its audiences to bring about more awareness towards people who are at risk of self harm and how it can affect anyone; not just a group of people who displays stereotypical characteristics of depression. Markcus will also be going on a short island wide tour to promote his single. Show dates can be found on his official media links.
