Talk about perfect timing.
Ella Langley and “Choosin’ Texas” are having a day that country music fans won’t soon forget. The hit song has picked up another major honor while simultaneously reaching a historic milestone on the Billboard Hot 100.
“Choosin’ Texas” was named Song of the Year at the Nashville Songwriter Awards, giving the songwriters behind the massive hit another reason to celebrate.

“Choosin’ Texas” has become much more than another successful country single. Its staying power has helped turn it into one of the defining songs of Langley’s breakthrough era.
The song’s success also reflects the collaborative songwriting behind it. Langley co-wrote “Choosin’ Texas” with Miranda Lambert, Luke Dick, and Joybeth Taylor, bringing together several talented voices to create the track.
Lambert’s connection to the song goes even further. She also co-produced Langley’s music, helping strengthen the creative relationship between the two country artists.

Few moments could be more fitting than seeing a song celebrated for its songwriting on the same day it reaches another historic chart achievement.
From Nashville’s songwriting community to the top of the Billboard Hot 100, “Choosin’ Texas” continues to make headlines.
