WATCH: Florence Welch’s surprise duet with sick fan is all kinds of emotional

Florence is pretty amazing...

What a sound gal.

Florence and the Machine singer Florence Welch did something super lovely and surprised a sick fan on her hospital bed.

In Austin, Texas, a 15-year-old girl, Karinya, who is in hospice care, was determined to attend a Florence and The Machine concert in spite of her illness.

But as the day drew nearer, it became clear that she was too sick to leave the medical facility. So the What Kind of Man singer came to her instead.

The fan’s mother, Catherine Chen, posted a photo from the private concert to her Instagram account, showing the British singer with her delighted daughter.

In the clip, Florence and Karinya perform a beautiful duet of Shake It Out sitting on the hospice bed and the crowd watch on, bewildered.

Just gorgeous.
