We mostly play medieval melodies (and have done a couple of folk songs). The only modern cover song we have done on medieval instruments is this: Oboe Round by Moondog.

Hey fellow music makers,
Ever thought about the real potential behind doing YouTube covers? They're not just about 'copying' but can be a way to showcase your unique voice and style. Over time, I've realized that covers can actually be an excellent platform to amplify our reach as independent artists.
Has anyone else felt that uncertainty, "Is doing covers selling out?" I've spent a lot of time pondering this, researching, and gathering experiences from others in the industry. How do you navigate the legalities of covers, work with YouTube's algorithm, and use them to build your artist branding?
I'd love to hear your thoughts, experiences, and maybe even your challenges with covers. Let's open a discussion about it! And if anyone wants more resources on this topic, feel free to DM or ask below!
Cheers to making music and supporting each other's journey! š¤
