Nikki Williams has extended her publishing relationship with Big Yellow Dog Music. Williams has been a Big Yellow Dog writer since first signing with the company in September 2009.

Williams started writing songs while still in school, after she and her family relocated from South Africa to Nashville. She co-wrote Demi Lovato’s double-Platinum hit, “Heart Attack,” which became the lead single off the singer’s fourth album, Demi. Williams’ catalog also includes “Like My Mother Does,” which was Lauren Alaina’s debut single.

“I’ve worked with Nikki since she was 18, and she’s as fiery a singer now as she was then,” Big Yellow Dog’s Carla Wallace says. “There is no one like Nikki! She is such an amazing talent, and I am so happy to continue our working relationship.”
