Ella Langley & Jo Dee Messina Pair For ‘The Conversation’ At CRS 2026

March 5, 2026/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Ella Langley and Jo Dee Messina will share their respective journeys to success in “The Conversation,” a keynote session at CRS on March 19 at 2:30 p.m.

Designed as a true one-on-one conversation, the session will feature Langley and Messina asking each other questions in a candid, unscripted dialogue.

Langley’s rapid career rise has been marked by major milestones including four CMA Awards, five ACM Awards, and becoming the first female artist in history to simultaneously top the Billboard Hot 100, Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay charts. Throughout her career, Messina has logged nine No. 1 hits, and awards and nominations from the ACM, CMA, AMA, Billboard, and the Grammys.

Now in its third year, “The Conversation” pairs artists from different career stages for a candid discussion. Previous installments have featured Trisha Yearwood with Lainey Wilson and Eric Church with Jelly Roll.
