Florence Welch Gave A Tearjerking Performance At A Children’s Hospital
Get your tissues
Florence Welch dropped by the Christopher House hospice in Austin, Texas, on Thursday, to perform for a fan who had missed her concert due to her illness. The 15-year-old girl even started harmonizing on Welch's acoustic renditions of "Shake it Out" and "Dog Days are Over," as her family and friends looked on. In fact, at one point, the rest of the room joins in too.
"Today we were privileged to witness the clear joy of a room full of teenagers singing with Florence Welch and guitarist Rob Ackroyd from Florence and The Machine who came to Hospice Austin's Christopher House to give a private concert to a teen who missed her concert last night due to her illness," read an official statement from the hospice. "The room was full; full of joy and warmth and love and life and singing. Thank you, Florence!"
