All Our Exes Live in Texas is an Australian folk group, consisting of Hannah Crofts (vocals & ukulele), Georgia Mooney (vocals & mandolin), Elana Stone (vocals & accordion) and Katie Wighton (vocals & guitar). The four artists combined at an O Brother Where Art Thou show in 2014.[1][2] The group name was chosen from a George Strait song to be funny and ironic.[3]

At the ARIA Music Awards of 2017, the group won ARIA Award for Best Blues and Roots Album, for the critically acclaimed debut album When We Fall.

All Our Exes Live In Texas have toured with Midnight Oil, The Backstreet Boys, Passenger, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Tiny Ruins, Megan Washington, Kate Miller-Heidke and Mama Kin.
