Fans will have even more chances to see Ella Langley live this year because today, the country music star announced dates for the second leg of her wildly successful The Dandelion Tour.

The news confirms that 21 new dates have been added to her sold-out headline arena run. After closing out the first part of her trek on August 15, she will head right back to the road on August 20 with a stop in Green Bay, WI to kick off the second leg.

Langley will continue to make her way across the country with plans to perform at several landmark venues including Red Rocks Amphitheatre and two nights at Los Angeles’ famed Greek Theatre. She will officially bring the tour to a close on October 31 when she delivers her final show in Saint Paul, MN.

Tickets to ‘The Dandelion Tour’ will be available via presale beginning Thursday, June 25. Fans can register to access presale tickets on ellalangley.com/tour.General on-sale begins on Friday, June 26 at 10am local time.

The tour was named after her No. 1 and RIAA Platinum-certified album Dandelion, which spawned two of the biggest country records in 2206: the 4X Platinum single “Choosin’ Texas,” which became the first song by a woman to simultaneously top the Billboard Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay charts, and Platinum hit “Be Her,” which recently was named the fastest solo female song to reach No. 1 at Country radio in the last 10 years.

Her milestone year also includes snagging all seven awards she was nominated for at the ACM Awards and earning two recent American Music Award wins.

The Alabama native executive produced her highly anticipated sophomore album alongside Miranda Lambert and Ben West. The album includes 18 tracks that showcase a flirtier, freer, more mature and confident side of Langley.

She launched the first half of her headline run in May, in addition to serving as support for select dates of Morgan Wallen’s Still The Problem Tour and making several festival appearances.

Her upcoming dates will feature support from a rotation of rising acts and hitmakers including ERNEST, Kameron Marlowe,  Gabriella Rose and Laci Kaye Booth.

HARDY is opening up about how becoming a girl dad has completely changed him.

Hours before he took the stage at CMA Fest for a performance at Nissan Stadium, HARDY joined us backstage where he gave us an update on his headlining COUNTRY! COUNTRY! TOUR! and the launch of his new McArthur lifestyle brand. During the conversation, he also reflected on how becoming a father has impacted his life in a major way.

HARDY explained that, like many first-time dads, he once imagined having a son, but everything shifted when his daughter Rosie arrived.

“It’s funny, before we knew the gender, obviously most men I think go, especially their firstborn, they anticipate a son, but I can honestly say like having a little baby girl has been the most amazing thing in the world,” he shared. “They’re just so precious and it’s taught me to be gentle and patient. I’m still working on that. My wife is over [there], she’s crying actually, but there’s just something about having a baby girl that does change you and it just changes the way that you behave around them.”

While he says he may feel the same way if they ever have a son in the future, he admits he feels especially protective over his baby girl.

“I just feel like I am like her protector and that I don’t ever want her to, this is so sad, but just I want her world to be perfect all the time because she deserves that, because of the joy that she’s brought me and my wife,” he sweetly added.

HARDY and his wife Caleigh often share glimpses of baby Rosie on social media, and according to him, the joy fans see online is exactly what life is like at home.

“I’m not kidding though, that smiley, that’s not just Instagram stuff. She is like that all the time. 95% of the time. She has like a witching hour around like 50 PM, 5:30. But other than that, she wakes up smiling. I mean, she is a perfect, perfect. And she’s like a kid now. She’s 15 months, so she’s like running around and you can kind Of talk to her already, which is so crazy.”

The country star and his wife welcomed their daughter, Rosie Ryan Hardy, on March 7, 2025. She weighed 9 lbs., 2 oz. at birth. Fans can keep with the adorable family on Instagram by following Caleigh and HARDY.
