Licenses for Covers

Do I need a license?

Every time you record a song that someone else wrote you need to get permission from the copyright holders.

This is the case even if you are giving away your recording. Getting permission involves contacting the copyright holders of each song and can be a real headache if you haven't done it before.

When you hire Easy Song Licensing, they take care of everything for you.
