“Choosin’ Texas” cleaned up in Single and Song categories, but Langley chose to perform her latest Dandelion single
Ella Langley brought her song “Be Her” to the Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday night in Las Vegas.
Langley, in a white gown, chose to strip down the track, off her latest album Dandelion. Langley played acoustic guitar, with two acoustic players behind her, as she sang, “I just wanna be her so bad.”
Most would prefer to be Langley on Sunday night. The Alabama singer-songwriter won Female Artist of the Year and Artist-Songwriter of the Year, while her crossover smash “Choosin’ Texas” was named both Single and Song of the Year.
Langley discussed how “Be Her” came from a genuine desire to grow when stopping by the Katie and Company radio show earlier this year. “What it’s about, truly, is it’s not about being someone else, it’s about being the her you want to be,” Langley said. “I think there’s things that every single person on this planet would like to see themselves do better as a human being, you know what I mean?” She added, “I was just honest, those are all things that I’m looking forward to, in my life, changing about myself a little bit.”
