Ella Langley won a record seven awards at the 2026 ACM Awards, which were presented at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday (May 17). This surpasses the old record of six wins in one year achieved by Garth Brooks in 1991, Faith Hill in 1999 and Chris Stapleton in 2016.
Langley won five awards at last year’s ACM Awards. No other artist in ACM Awards history has amassed 12 awards in just two years. The old record was held by Hill, who won 10 awards across the 1998 and 1999 ceremonies.

(Only awards won in competition count toward the ACM’s official tallies. Another complication: Artists win two awards in some categories if they also served in other capacities, such as producer or songwriter.)
Langley won female artist of the year, breaking Lainey Wilson’s three-year hold on that award; artist-songwriter of the year; music event of the year for “Don’t Mind If I Do,” a reunion collab with Riley Green (with whom she shared the award last year for “you look like you love me”); single of the year (as both artist and producer); and song of the year (as both artist and songwriter). The latter two awards were for her crossover smash “Choosin’ Texas.”
Langley is just the fifth artist to win back-to-back awards for single of the year. She won last year for “you look like you love me,” her collab with Green. Here’s a full list of artists who have won back-to-back ACM Awards for single of the year.
Langley won female artist just one year after winning for new female artist of the year.

But note: One woman, Gretchen Wilson, won top female vocalist of the year and top new artist of the year (as the categories were known that year) the same year (2005).
