Although Florence and the Machine aren’t really my cup of tea, this story – in particular, the YouTube videos – honestly brought a tear to my eye.
The young girl she visited is apparently called Karinya, and she’s in a hospice suffering from a rare form of cancer (and most people will realise what that means as far as life expectancy is concerned). Karinya couldn’t attend a concert the band gave in Austin, Texas, due to her illness – so Florence and the band’s guitarist, Rob Ackroyd, went to her.
Best event of the year.
