Ella Langley Wins Two Consecutive ACM Single of the Year Awards

Ella Langley joined an elite group of artists at the Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday (May 17), becoming just the fifth performer to win back-to-back awards for single of the year. She won last year for “You Look Like You Love Me,” her sexy collab with Riley Green , and won again this year with her crossover smash “Choosin’ Texas.”

The universally relatable “Choosin’ Texas” has logged 24 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on Billboard ’s Hot Country Songs and nine nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 .

The ACM Award for single of the year goes to the artist(s), producer(s) and record company/label(s). If an artist also produced or coproduced the winning record, as Langley did here, he or she gets two awards.

Miranda Lambert , who coproduced Langley’s record with Langley and Ben West, previously won the ACM Award for single of the year as an artist with “The House That Built Me” in 2011, “Over You” in 2013 and “Mama’s Broken Heart” in 2014. Lambert is one of only four artists in ACM history to win four times in this category. The others are Alan Jackson (as an artist on four singles) and George Strait and Tim McGraw (as both artist and producer on two singles each).

Here are the five artists who have won back-to-back ACM Awards for single of the year. The year shown is the year of the ceremony.

The ACM Awards are produced by Dick Clark Productions, which is owned by Penske Media Eldridge, a joint venture between Eldridge Industries and Billboard parent company Penske Media.
