Singer Florence Welch sang her hit tracks "Shake It Out" and "Dog Days Are Over" with a 15-year-old patient at Hospice Austin's Christopher House on May 20.

Her performance was backed by her Florence + the Machine bandmate Rob Ackroyd on guitar, reported Female First.

Hospice Austin shared cell phone footage of the special surprise show on YouTube.

"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," the caption of the video read.
 

"The room was full; full of joy and warmth and love and life and singing. Thank you, Florence!"

One of the patient's friends also took to social media to thank the group for their kind gesture.

On Florence's Instagram, a user posted, "thank you for singing to my friend Karinya at the hospital yesterday it brought so much joy, your incredible person with incredible heart! May only good blessings come your way for your support! (sic).
