Ella Langley brings The Dandelion Tour to the Moody Center in Austin, TX on Thursday, August 13, 2026. The show marks her debut performance at this 15,000-capacity arena on the University of Texas campus and her first headline show in the Austin market. It opens the three-date Texas run that closes out The Dandelion Tour, with Corpus Christi and Fort Worth to follow on August 14 and 15.

The Austin date carries a particular cultural weight. Langley’s Billboard Hot 100 number one “Choosin’ Texas” has made her one of the most talked-about artists in the state entering 2026. Playing the Moody Center the same venue that has hosted Lady Gaga, Journey, and Cardi B in the same spring and summer season, signals where she now sits in the touring hierarchy.

Her previous Austin appearances were at Stubb’s for an SXSW showcase and at the Rock The Country festival at the Austin County Fairgrounds. The Moody Center is a step change in scale from both.

Both artists are well suited to a Texas crowd.

Kaitlin Butts

Her 2023 album What Else Can She Do earned widespread critical attention. She has appeared on multiple Dandelion Tour dates across the summer run, including Pikeville, Cary, North Charleston, Gilford, and Canandaigua. Her live sets are known for their rawness and storytelling depth.

Gabriella Rose

Gabriella Rose is a rising country voice who has been part of The Dandelion Tour’s early leg dates, including the May shows in Toledo, St. Louis, and Savannah. Her appearance on the Texas run reconnects her to the tour after a gap in the summer schedule. Her vocal style and songwriting sensibility complement Langley’s set well for a Texas audience.
