Ella Langley is redefining the next wave of country music with her powerhouse voice, fearless songwriting, and a sound that blends unfiltered storytelling with rock ‘n’ roll grit and pop appeal. Raised in Hope Hull, Alabama, Ella built her foundation tirelessly playing bars and local festivals before moving to Nashville in 2019. After a string of singles and her debut EP, Excuse The Mess (2023), she delivered her full-length debut album hungover in August 2024. On the road, Ella sold out her first headline tour in 2024 and extended into 2025 while joining tours with Riley Green and Morgan Wallen. She emerged as a breakout star at the 2025 ACM Awards, leading with eight nominations and winning five, and also earning six nominations for the 2025 CMA Awards.
