Ella Langley won the ACM Artist-Songwriter of the Year Award! This award marks Ella’s first time being nominated and winning in the Artist-Songwriter category. She was surprised with her win in Savannah, Georgia on the Dandelion Tour.
This is also Langley’s first ACM win of 2026. She is nominated for six more awards, including Female Artist of the Year, Single of the Year, Song of the Year, and Music Event of the Year. Langley is the third most nominated artist at the ACMs this year with seven. Thanks to recognition by the Academy of Country Music, the four most nominated artists are women: Megan Moroney (9), Miranda Lambert (8), Ella Langley (7), and Lainey Wilson (7).
On social media, Ella celebrated her win, writing, “Feeling incredibly grateful. Two sold out shows & ACM Artist-Songwriter of the Year?! Thank you Estero, Savannah & the ACM Awards. I’m a lucky gal.”
Langley will be performing at the 61st Academy of Country Music Awards tomorrow night. She is also headlining her first arena tour with The Dandelion Tour, and she is supporting Morgan Wallen on his Still The Problem Tour at select dates.
Congratulations, Ella! So well deserved!
