Matt Maltese resists a rival for the affections of his girlfriend in Prasanna Puwanarajah's charming video for Always Some MF.

Puwanarajah sets up a love triangle in a country house, where 'The MF' played by Ira Mandela Siobhan challenges Maltese to a fencing duel, to win the hand of the singer's attractive love, Nadia Parkes - to accompany Maltese's performance of a laidback jazz-pop track with a lyrical sting.  

The video for Always Some MF follows the collaboration between actor/director Puwanarajah and Maltese on the Royal Shakespeare Company's recent stage production of Twelfth Night - directed by Puwanarajah, with music composed by Maltese.  

“Matt’s a generational artist and it’s been an honour to work with him again on Always Some MF after our collaboration at the RSC last year," says Puwanarajah. "We wanted to create a film that explored the complexities of love and relationships with - we hope - the wit and wierdness that a life with another person requires and yields.

"Matt’s got a strange and beautiful take on the world, on relationships and the collision of ordinary life, I love his music and our growing collaboration and I hope this song runs and runs.”
