Ella Langley brings The Dandelion Tour to Cable Dahmer Arena in Independence, Missouri on Friday, June 19, 2026, marking her first headlining performance at the 7,000-capacity venue just east of Kansas City. The rising country star returns to the Kansas City metro area 17 months after selling out the Tower Theatre in downtown Kansas City during her Still Hungover Tour in January 2025.

The Independence show arrives one day after Langley’s Oklahoma City performance at Zoo Amphitheatre and one day before she joins Morgan Wallen’s Still the Problem Tour at Soldier Field in Chicago. This strategic positioning in the tour schedule allows Langley to maintain momentum across both headlining and supporting slots while maximizing regional coverage throughout the Midwest.

Dylan Marlowe and Gabriella Rose join the bill, creating a triple lineup of contemporary country talent. Doors open at 6:00 PM, with showtime set for 7:00 PM.

The Dandelion Tour Context

The Independence concert sits in the middle portion of Langley’s 16-date headlining trek, which launched May 7 in Toledo. Named after her sophomore album Dandelion released April 10 via SAWGOD/Columbia Records with executive production from Langley, Miranda Lambert, and Ben West the tour represents her first sustained run commanding mid-sized arenas on her own name.

Dandelion follows her 2024 debut hungover, which produced the Riley Green duet “You Look Like You Love Me” and reached No. 5 on Billboard’s Country Albums chart. The new 18-track project explores growth, resilience, and self-discovery through songs co-written with industry heavyweights including Lambert, Luke Dick, and Joybeth Taylor.

The album’s lead single “Choosin’ Texas” made Billboard history as the first female-led country song to simultaneously top the Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay charts. The track remains in the Top 5 at country radio as of early March 2026, ensuring maximum audience familiarity with her recent work at the Independence show.

The Kansas City metro area holds significance in Langley’s career trajectory. Her January 30, 2025 performance in Kansas City as part of the Still Hungover Tour introduced her to local audiences during her pre-breakthrough era, months before “Choosin’ Texas” climbed the charts. The June 19, 2026 Independence show represents a homecoming with elevated industry status and commercial validation.

Given Langley’s recent chart success and the limited 16-date tour schedule, Independence tickets are moving at a steady pace.

The arena accommodates 5,800 for hockey and up to 7,000 for concerts and special events. Its multi-purpose design creates excellent acoustics for live music, with clear sightlines from every seat and modern sound reinforcement systems. Cable Dahmer Arena’s intimate capacity positions it between club venues and major arenas, offering the production quality of larger shows with the connection of smaller rooms.

Expected Setlist & Performance Details

Based on Langley’s recent 2026 performances at venues including CHI Health Center (Omaha), Scotiabank Arena (Toronto), and Grand Ole Opry House (Nashville), the Independence setlist should feature 16-18 songs spanning both albums plus select covers.

Likely Opening
“Hell At Night” (BigXthaPlug cover) Langley frequently opens with a tape playback of this high-energy hip-hop reinterpretation before the band enters, signaling her genre-blending approach.

Core Setlist Expectations

• “paint the town blue”
• “Country Boy’s Dream Girl”
• “nicotine”
• “Here for the Party” (Gretchen Wilson cover)
• “Never Met Anyone Like You”
• “Dandelion” (title track from the new album)
• “girl you’re taking home”
• “20-20”
• “you look like you love me” (likely performed solo with crowd participation)
• “Choosin’ Texas” (guaranteed set highlight and audience focal point)
• “weren’t for the wind” (frequent show closer)

Additional songs expected to rotate into the setlist include “Be Her” from Dandelion, which was released as a single in early 2026 and has begun gaining traction at country radio.

The set typically runs 90 minutes, balancing uptempo anthems with emotional ballads that showcase Langley’s vocal range and storytelling precision. Fans should expect a high-production show featuring full band arrangements, dynamic lighting design, and Langley’s natural stage presence honed through years opening for Morgan Wallen and Riley Green.

Special Guests: Dylan Marlowe & Gabriella Rose

Dylan Marlowe brings Nashville credibility and guitar-forward country to The Dandelion Tour. The North Carolina-born singer-songwriter gained national attention through his appearance on The Voice and has since built a devoted following through singles like “Giving You Up” and “Steady Heart.” His second studio album Keepin’ the Lights On arrived in 2025.

Marlowe recently collaborated with Langley on “Strangers,” which appears on Keepin’ the Lights On. His baritone delivery and emotionally resonant songwriting create a natural pairing with Langley’s blend of country traditionalism and contemporary production. His set typically runs 30-35 minutes, focusing on his most recognizable material plus newer tracks from the 2025 release.

Gabriella Rose represents the newer wave of country artists blending Americana influences with pop accessibility. Her growing catalog and energetic stage presence make her an ideal tour opener, typically performing a 20-minute set that introduces audiences to her core sound before Marlowe takes the stage.

The rotating support acts across different Dandelion Tour dates include Kameron Marlowe, Kaitlin Butts, and Laci Kaye Booth, but the Independence bill specifically features Dylan Marlowe and Gabriella Rose.

About Ella Langley

Born May 3, 1999, in Hope Hull, Alabama, Ella Langley grew up immersed in music through Baptist church singing and family jam sessions. After relocating to Nashville in 2019, she built her career through the city’s songwriter community, eventually landing cuts on Elle King’s Come Get Your Wife and a Runaway June single.

Her debut album hungover arrived August 2, 2024, debuting at No. 77 on the Billboard 200. The deluxe edition Still Hungover pushed the album to No. 49 upon its November 2024 re-entry. “You Look Like You Love Me” with Riley Green became her first No. 1 on Country Airplay, while “Weren’t for the Wind” peaked at No. 18 on the Hot 100.

“Choosin’ Texas,” co-written with Miranda Lambert, Luke Dick, and Joybeth Taylor, became Langley’s career-defining moment. The song debuted at No. 39 on the Hot 100 in November 2025 and climbed to No. 1 by February 2026, making history as the first female-led country song to simultaneously command the Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay charts. The track has accumulated over 240 million streams.

At the 2025 CMA Awards, Langley earned six nominations including Female Vocalist of the Year, New Artist of the Year, and Single of the Year for “you look like you love me,” ultimately winning Best Single of the Year. She also won the Academy of Country Music’s New Female Artist of the Year award in 2026.

Langley’s influences span Stevie Nicks, Willie Nelson, and 1970s-80s rock bands, creating a sound that balances country authenticity with rock energy and pop melody. Her live performances emphasize this fusion, moving seamlessly between tender ballads and arena-ready anthems.

Kansas City Area Concert History

Langley’s January 30, 2025 performance in Kansas City as part of the Still Hungover Tour introduced her to local audiences during her pre-breakthrough era. That show occurred just months before “Choosin’ Texas” climbed the charts and established her as a commercial force in country music.

The June 19, 2026 Independence performance represents a significant venue upgrade and career milestone. Where her 2025 Kansas City show occurred in a smaller club setting, Cable Dahmer Arena’s 7,000-capacity configuration positions Langley as a legitimate arena headliner. For Kansas City area fans who attended the 2025 show, the 2026 concert offers a rare opportunity to witness an artist’s evolution in real time across two distinct performance environments within 17 months.

Independence sits approximately 10 miles east of downtown Kansas City, making Cable Dahmer Arena easily accessible from both Missouri and Kansas sides of the metro area. The venue’s location near major highways (I-70, I-470, US-40) creates convenient access from throughout the region.

Pre-Show & Post-Show Independence

Visitors traveling to Independence for the concert have access to Kansas City metro area attractions and dining options within a short drive of Cable Dahmer Arena. The venue sits in Independence’s eastern commercial corridor, adjacent to major retail centers.

Dining Options Near the Venue
Independence offers extensive chain restaurant options along US-40 and Noland Road within 5-10 minutes of the arena. For authentic Kansas City barbecue, Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Que (20 minutes west) and Jack Stack Barbecue (15 minutes west) represent local favorites worth the short drive. For pre-show casual dining closer to the venue, guests typically visit chains or pack tailgate-style meals for the parking lots, where limited tailgating is permitted before certain events.

Parking Strategy
On-site parking fills quickly for popular concerts. Early arrival by 5:30 PM secures the best spots closest to arena entrances. Traffic congestion occurs at the intersection of Valley View Parkway and Little Blue Parkway during peak arrival times (5:30-6:30 PM). Allowing extra time for parking lot entry and vehicle placement reduces stress before showtime.

Some concertgoers park in adjacent retail lots and walk across the pedestrian bridge to the arena, though this practice may be subject to towing depending on retailer policies.

Post-Show Considerations
Traffic exits from the arena parking lot can be slow following sold-out concerts, with waits of 20-30 minutes common. Allowing time for the initial rush to clear or walking to nearby restaurants/bars for post-show dinner reduces frustration. Rideshare pickup may involve significant wait times immediately after the show due to high demand.

Nearby hotels along I-70 and in Independence’s commercial corridor provide convenient options for out-of-town guests, particularly those continuing to Chicago for Langley’s Morgan Wallen support slot at Soldier Field on June 20.

Why This Show Matters

The Independence date captures Langley at a pivotal moment — actively promoting a new album while her biggest single still dominates country radio and streaming platforms. “Choosin’ Texas” remains in the Top 5 at country radio as of early March 2026, ensuring maximum audience familiarity with her recent work.

The Dandelion album, released just weeks before the tour launch, positions Langley as an artist in active creative mode rather than touring on legacy material. For attendees, the June 19 concert offers access to an artist whose career trajectory suggests festival headline slots and stadium dates within the next 12-24 months. The 16-date Dandelion Tour deliberately maintains scarcity, making each performance a premium experience.

Langley’s collaboration with Miranda Lambert on Dandelion adds industry credibility that translates to live performance polish. Lambert’s influence appears in the album’s production values and songwriting depth, elements that elevate Langley’s live show beyond typical rising-artist performances.

Cable Dahmer Arena’s 7,000-capacity sweet spot creates an optimal concert experience — large enough for significant production value but intimate enough for genuine artist-audience connection. The venue’s excellent acoustics and clear sightlines from every seat ensure a quality experience regardless of ticket tier.

Related Shows & Tour Continuation

Following Independence, Langley joins Morgan Wallen’s Still the Problem Tour at Soldier Field in Chicago on June 20, then returns to headlining mode with shows in Salem, Virginia (June 25) and Wilmington, North Carolina (June 26). The Chicago stadium date exposes Langley to Wallen’s massive audience base, while the subsequent headlining shows allow her to capitalize on that exposure.

The tour concludes with a Texas three-show run in mid-August: Austin’s Moody Center (August 13), Corpus Christi’s Hilliard Center (August 14), and Fort Worth’s Dickies Arena (August 15). The Texas finale holds symbolic weight given “Choosin’ Texas” becoming her signature hit.

Fans unable to attend the Independence show can catch Langley at her Oklahoma City performance one day earlier (June 18) or at the Chicago stadium show with Morgan Wallen one day later (June 20).
