Artist on the rise Ella Langley is gearing up to release her highly anticipated sophomore album, Dandelion, available April 10, 2026. The new collection of music, executive produced by Langley, Miranda Lambert and Ben West, features current hit single “Choosin’ Texas,” as well as the album’s title track, which will be unveiled this Friday, January 30.
Dandelion serves as Ella’s most personal project yet, showcasing both growth and relatability throughout that listeners are sure to connect with. “This record has so much growth in it,” Ella shares. “I’ve never poured more of myself into a project, into a song, into an idea, and it’s fallen out so beautifully. It’s about learning yourself, making mistakes, and realizing that it’s all just part of life.”
“I want this record to be something that fans can relate to, but also something they want to get up and dance to at the same time,” she says. “To me, this record feels like fireflies in the summertime. It feels like windows down on a red dirt road. It feels like the best kind of Sunday afternoon. It feels like those days I remember as a kid where it felt like there weren’t enough hours in the day. This record is really a love letter to that.”
The album’s title carries layered meaning. While a physical dandelion is often overlooked and disregarded as a weed, it demonstrates survival and resilience, strong qualities that will likely be woven throughout the album.
“I learned that dandelion tea is actually a natural detox for the liver,” Ella noted. “So a record called Dandelion after a record called hungover made all the sense in the world to me.” When put like that, it’s hard to imagine a more fitting follow-up album title.
Dandelion is now available for pre-order here, including Limited Edition Signed Honey Bee Yellow Vinyl, Standard Puffball White Vinyl, and Standard Jewelcase CD. New exclusive merchandise available for pre-order as well and can be found here.
