Ella Langley returns to Salem, Virginia, as country music royalty. Just months after “Choosin’ Texas” became the first song by a woman to simultaneously top the Billboard Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay charts, the Alabama-born singer-songwriter brings The Dandelion Tour to Salem Civic Center on June 25, 2026.
The show marks Langley’s second appearance at the 7,000-seat venue. She first performed there in 2022 as an opening act for Gary Allan. This time, she commands the stage as a headliner riding unprecedented commercial momentum.
“Choosin’ Texas” held the No. 1 spot on the Hot 100 for its second consecutive week as of March 7, 2026, drawing 22.1 million streams and 34.4 million radio impressions. The track, co-written with Miranda Lambert, surpassed Taylor Swift’s “The Fate of Ophelia” to become 2026’s best-selling song. It’s now RIAA Platinum-certified with over 310 million global streams.

The Dandelion Tour launches May 7 in Toledo, Ohio, and runs through August 15 in Fort Worth, Texas. The Salem stop falls midway through the 16-show arena run, following the April 10 release of Langley’s sophomore album Dandelion. Dylan Marlowe and Gabriella Rose join as supporting acts across select dates.
Doors open at 6:00 PM. The show starts at 7:00 PM. Ella Langley Salem tickets remain available through Ticketmaster and the Salem Civic Center box office at (540) 375-9780.

About Ella Langley
Ella Langley was born in Hope Hull, Alabama, and began writing songs in her teenage years. Her breakthrough arrived in 2024 with “you look like you love me,” a duet with Riley Green that climbed country radio and introduced her confessional songwriting style to a national audience.
Her debut album Hungover arrived in 2024 and produced multiple Billboard Hot 100 entries. The project established Langley as a commercial force and critical favorite, blending traditional country instrumentation with modern lyrical themes around heartbreak, resilience, and Southern identity.
Dandelion, her sophomore album, releases April 10, 2026, co-produced with Miranda Lambert and Ben West. The album’s lead single “Choosin’ Texas” made history in February 2026 as the first song by a female artist to simultaneously top the Billboard Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay charts. The track’s success positioned Langley alongside Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Dolly Parton, and a select group of women who have dominated both country and pop charts.
Beyond The Dandelion Tour, Langley maintains a packed 2026 schedule with supporting slots on Eric Church’s Free the Machine Tour, Morgan Wallen’s Still the Problem Tour, and festival appearances at Stagecoach, Railbird Fest, and Braves Country Fest.
Her music centers on authentic storytelling, vocal grit, and a refusal to sand down the rough edges of country music. She cites influences ranging from Miranda Lambert to Gretchen Wilson, and her live shows emphasize those connections through covers and collaborations.
