Ella Langley Setlist to Know 2026

A one stop fan guide to The Dandelion Tour setlist, show length, must know songs, and what to expect

I am Nathalie Valbuena, and I am a die hard Ella Langley fan. I made this guide because I kept seeing the same questions everywhere before tour stops. What is she opening with. How long is the show. Which songs do I need to know cold so I can sing every word. So I pulled everything into one place and wrote it the way I would tell a friend who is going with me.

Everything below is based on the most consistent 2026 setlist patterns reported by fans and logged on setlist tracking sites like Setlist.fm, plus live clips and night to night chatter. Setlists can change at any time, but if you learn the songs in this guide you will be ready for almost any Dandelion Tour night.

Quick takeaways

• Expect a 90 minute headline show with about 16 to 18 songs
• The most common opener is weren’t for the wind
• The most common closer is you look like you love me
• Choosin’ Texas is the one song you absolutely cannot miss
• There is usually a quieter acoustic moment mid show, often anchored by nicotine
• Riley Green is not a billed guest on this tour, but the crowd sings his lines loud

Setlist reality check

Setlists are always subject to change for timing, voice rest, venue rules, or just Ella being in a different mood. The best way to use this list is to learn the core songs and then treat the rest as a bonus.

Setlist breakdown by moment of the show

I like knowing not just what she plays, but when the big moments usually happen, because it helps you pace yourself and not burn your voice in the first 10 minutes.

Typical Dandelion Tour structure

If you only have the energy to fully lock in for two moments, make it Choosin’ Texas and the closer. That is where the whole building tends to unify.

How long is an Ella Langley concert in 2026

Here is what you should plan for, based on how her 2026 dates are being reported.

Headlining Dandelion Tour

• Typical length: about 90 minutes
• Typical number of songs: about 16 to 18
• Breaks: short pauses between sections, plus a mid show reset during the acoustic moment

Support and festival sets

When Ella is not the headliner, the set tightens up.

My practical advice. If you are going to a headlining night, you can expect a full story arc. If you are catching her as support, treat it like a greatest hits sprint.

The songs you absolutely need to know

If you learn only a handful, learn these. These are the ones that consistently create the loudest crowd moments, and they also tend to be the most reliable setlist locks.

Choosin’ Texas

This one hits different live. It is built for a crowd chorus, and you can literally feel the room snap into focus as soon as you recognize the first line. Multiple outlets and fan trackers have noted how dominant this song has been during the Dandelion era, and it has become a centerpiece of the show.

What to memorize

• The full chorus, obviously
• The turn into the last chorus, because that is where the crowd usually screams loudest

you look like you love me

This is the closer most nights, and it is the moment where you do not need a special guest for it to feel massive. Even when Ella performs it solo, the crowd sings Riley Green’s parts back at her. If you have never experienced a whole arena confidently taking a duet role, it is honestly something you will remember.

What to memorize

• Riley’s response lines, because the crowd becomes Riley
• The final chorus so you can go out strong

weren’t for the wind

This is the most common opener pattern fans are reporting. It sets the tone immediately, and it gives Ella space to come out hot with attitude and momentum.

What to memorize

• First verse and first chorus, so you can be fully in from the first 30 seconds

nicotine

If there is one song that consistently shows up in the quieter mid show pocket, it is nicotine. When the arrangement strips back, her vocal and phrasing are the whole show.

What to memorize

• The hook and the lines right before it, because the room tends to hush and then sing

The acoustic segment and what to expect mid show

Most Dandelion Tour nights include a stripped back section in the middle. Less production, more voice, more storytelling. If you are the type of fan who loves the raw version of an artist, this is your moment.

What it usually looks like

• 2 to 3 songs with a quieter arrangement
• More talking to the crowd
• A different kind of intensity, the kind that makes the whole venue feel closer

Why it matters
This is usually where Ella connects the album themes to real life. Even if you came for the party songs, the acoustic pocket is often what you leave thinking about.

My tip. If you want video, this is where you can actually record a full chorus without someone bumping you, because the crowd energy shifts from jumping to listening.

Dandelion album songs you are likely to hear

Ella’s 2026 album Dandelion is clearly shaping the tour. The title track is a strong expectation, and other newer songs rotate in depending on the night.

Most likely Dandelion era inclusions

Based on repeated reports across early tour stops and fan setlist logs, you can reasonably expect:

• Dandelion
• Be Her appears some nights
• Other newer cuts may rotate in as the tour continues

Why the setlist keeps evolving

Early legs of a tour are where artists test pacing. If one new song lands huge in a room, it stays. If it slows the energy too much, it might rotate out. So if you are seeing Ella later in the run, you might catch a different balance of new to old than someone who went to the first few weeks.

Does Riley Green appear on the Dandelion Tour

As of the most consistent tour information fans are working with right now, Riley Green is not a listed guest for the Dandelion Tour dates.

What actually happens in the room

• Ella performs you look like you love me without him most nights
• The crowd fills in his lines, loudly and confidently
• It turns into one of the biggest participation moments of the night

If you are hoping for a surprise, it is always possible on any tour in any city, but I would not buy a ticket expecting a guest appearance. Buy it expecting a great closer and a loud crowd duet moment.

Ella Langley support setlist for Still The Problem Tour dates

When Ella is in a direct support slot, the mission is different. It is about winning the room fast and stacking recognizable hooks.

What her shorter support set usually focuses on

You will most often hear the songs that convert casual listeners into fans:

• Choosin’ Texas
• you look like you love me
• Country Boy’s Dream Girl
• paint the town blue
• A small selection of Dandelion era material depending on the night and timing

Support set expectations at a glance

If you are seeing her as support, I always recommend building a quick playlist of the must know songs above. You will enjoy it more and you will be able to sing with the fans who already know every word.

My personal prep list so you feel ready the second she walks out

I built this for you the way I prep for a show when I care about every second.

1. Learn the opener and closer
   If you know weren’t for the wind and you look like you love me, you will feel plugged in from the first second to the last.
2. Add the big singalong track
   Choosin’ Texas is the one where you want to be fearless.
3. Do not skip the acoustic anchor
   nicotine tends to be the one that makes the room go quiet. Knowing it makes that moment hit harder.
4. Plan your arrival around the opener
   If you want the full setlist experience, be inside early. The opener is not a slow warmup.
