Ella Langley is enjoying her reign as one of country music's biggest female stars right now. But she already knows of one female artist who could soon take her spot, and no one is more excited about it than Langley.

"I think that Carter Faith is going to have a massive [year]... She's so creative," Langley says on The Scotty Kay Show. "And she's just right. She's just one song away. I feel like she's exactly where I was. I felt like I was one song away, and I really was just one song away.."
"Carter, she's somebody who's going to be around for a long time," she adds.

Carly Pearce invited Faith to open for her on her Hummingbird Tour. The two sang Pearce and Ashley McBryde's "Never Wanted To Be That Girl" during Pearce's headlining set, with Pearce publicly praising the rising star.
Ella Langley's Reign In Country Music
Langely is certainly having an unforgettable year. The Alabama native was the most-nominated artist heading into the ACM Awards. Langley had a total of eight nominations, walking away with five, making her also the artist with the most wins at the recent ceremony.
"I'm at a loss for words, which, if you've ever met me before, you know that's very hard to do," says of her ACM Awards success. "Just grateful. Grateful is just the word I keep saying. It's all I can say, really."
Three of those trophies went to Langley and Riley Green, for their "You Look Like You Love Me" collaboration, including Visual Media of the Year. And much like Langley is supporting Faith, Lainey Wilson is offering the same support to Langley.
"I'm buddies with Megan Moroney (and) Ella Langley, and to watch their stars just soaring, it's really, really cool to see," Wilson says on iHeartCountry Radio.
"And at times, I wanna just pour out as much as I possibly can to them and be like, 'Don't you miss this moment. Be present," she continues. "'Do whatever you gotta do to soak it in and celebrate these times, and then get ready for the next one because it's going to be right around the corner quicker than you can even realize it just happened.'"
