Ella Langley: Wins ACM’s New Female Artist of the Year Ahead of 60th ACM Awards

Country music is buzzing with excitement as Ella Langley, the most nominated artist heading into the 60th ACM Awards, has been honored with her very first ACM Award, taking home the title of ACM New Female Artist of the Year. The thrilling announcement came as a delightful surprise during her performance at Rock The Country in Knoxville, TN, where she was greeted with a heartfelt video message from none other than Miranda Lambert, the all-time leading ACM award winner.

Ella’s recognition isn’t just a highlight in her career; it’s a wonderfully deserved reward for an artist who has been making waves in the country music scene. Since the release of her debut album, hungover, accolades have been pouring in. Not only was it celebrated as one of the best albums of 2024 by renowned outlets like The New York Times and Rolling Stone, but it also features a collection of tracks that Langley co-wrote, showcasing her talents as both a singer and a songwriter.

Her breakout single, “you look like you love me,” featuring the beloved Riley Green, catapulted Langley into the spotlight, making her Billboard Hot 100 debut in the Top 30 and scoring her first Country radio No. 1 hit. This impressive feat also made her one of only two female artists to ascend to the top of the Billboard Country Airplay Chart in 2024—a milestone that highlights her undeniable impact on the genre.

As if that weren’t enough, Ella Langley leads the pack with an impressive eight nominations at this year’s ACM Awards. Her nominations include not only New Female Artist of the Year and Female Artist of the Year, but also six nods for her hit single, “you look like you love me.” These covers a range of categories including Single of the Year, Song of the Year (both as an artist and songwriter), Music Event of the Year, and Visual Media of the Year, for which she served as both artist and director.

Ella Langley is proving to be a powerful new force in country music. As she prepares for the upcoming ACM Awards on May 8, fans can feel the anticipation building. It’s clear that this talented artist is just getting started, and we can’t wait to see what she achieves next!
