Covering Songs with DistroKid

Covering songs can be a great way to showcase your talent and reach new fans. However, it's important to understand the legalities and processes involved. When you cover a song, you are performing a new version of a song that was originally written and recorded by another artist.

Mechanical License for Cover Songs

To legally release a cover song, you need to obtain a mechanical license. This license allows you to reproduce and distribute the song. DistroKid makes this process simple by offering a cover song licensing service through their partnership with Harry Fox Agency (HFA), an organization that issues mechanical licenses.

Steps to Release a Cover Song on DistroKid

Here's how you can release a cover song on DistroKid:

  1. Sign up with DistroKid and upload your cover song.
  2. During the upload process, select the option that indicates your song is a cover.
  3. DistroKid will handle the licensing on your behalf and distribute your cover song to the digital streaming platforms.
