Project
Details
"Some Got Up" filmed live at Savor Cinema in Fort Lauderdale during the James Malcolm Band's December 2025 concert run.
This is a cinematic music video built from a live performance rather than a staged shoot. The song is played once, in front of an audience, and the film has to work with what the room gives you: the lighting the venue is already running, the band's own blocking, and one take.
That constraint is the point. A live cut carries something a controlled set cannot, because the performance is real and the crowd is reacting to it in the frame.

About the band
The James Malcolm Band is a Fort Lauderdale project working in country, Americana and country-rock storytelling. Lead singer and co-founder Malcolm Philip Flavell named it in tribute to his late father. Their debut album Never Too Late came out through Settle Down Productions on November 26, 2025.

The concert film from the same run covers the wider night, and the Knock on Marble music video was the first project with this team.
