Nina Nesbitt has returned to BMG after signing an exclusive songwriter agreement with the company.
The Scottish singer and songwriter has written for artists including Perrie Edwards, IVE, Jessie Ware and Illenium, alongside her own recording career.
Recent credits include five songs on Edwards' debut album, including the single If He Wanted To He Would. Nesbitt also co-wrote IVE’s Classic from the group’s Wave EP, and Illenium's Luv Me A Little, which she co-wrote with Lewis Capaldi and also features on the track.
“I’m so happy to announce that I’ve signed a new publishing deal with BMG," said Nesbitt. "It feels really special to be returning to BMG and to be working with such a passionate team. I’m incredibly excited for this next chapter of my songwriting career and can’t wait to see where it leads.”
Nesbitt has amassed more than one billion career streams and has headlined sold-out tours in the UK, US and Australia. She has supported artists including Stevie Nicks, Lewis Capaldi, Coldplay and Justin Bieber, while her latest album, 2024's Mountain Music, reached No.1 on the Official Folk Albums Chart.

“Nina writes with a clarity and honesty that’s completely her own," said Ciara Newell-Bailey, BMG's senior director, creative, publishing. "Her melodies stay with you, and her lyrics say the things most of us can’t quite put into words. Having previously worked with Nina, welcoming her back to BMG is a real privilege. Beyond the talent, she’s one of the kindest, most grounded people in music, and together with her manager Vicky Dowdall we’re building something really special for this next chapter.”
Nesbitt joins BMG’s roster, which also includes talent such as Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Gary Barlow, Phil Collins, Pink Floyd, The 1975, Fraser T Smith, Johnny McDaid, Tyla, Loyle Carner, James Arthur, George Ezra, CMAT and Kamille.
