Yes, it’s on my list of things to do.

Much Thanks

Great question. Facebook has become more strict about users posting copyrighted songs and content. (Disclaimer: Not a lawyer so don’t take this as legal advice.) However, there should be no issue with using cover songs that you’ve recorded in your Facebook Ads, at least from the few covers I’ve used in ads in the past.

Covering songs is perfectly legal in the U.S., as long as you follow a few rules like not changing lyrics, and pay the proper mechanical licenses if you distribute physically or digitally. Crediting the songwriters as well so they get the proper performance royalties whenever the song is viewed / played from their Performance Rights Organizations (PRO).

From my understanding, Facebook is more so focused on preventing the use of copyrighted master recordings of songs from being used illegally (what so many do) and not necessarily the musical composition, what you’re using in a cover song.

Hope that helps.
