I am an avid fan of original music. In fact, there is no greater feeling that coming across a new musician with their own unique sound. Nevertheless, sometimes you have to delve into different areas to create a buzz required to take you onto the next level. There are many ways to do that but do you know the power of recording covers?

 

Recording a cover can be all it takes to enable you to grow. That is not to say that you need to keep putting out covers every day.

But lets think about this. If there is a song which is going viral, then you can guarantee that it will be getting a large amount of daily searches on websites like Youtube and Google, agree?

So why not tap into that buzz? It is a no brainer.

Furthermore, an easy way to do this is to record your own cover of the track and put it out onto your own Youtube channel.

Fans will then most likely come across your video and will observe your style and take on the original. In fact they may love your version and decide to go and listen to your original tracks.

Little things like this go a long way and can take you from being a barely known musician to seeing exponential growth in no time.

Growth

However, that is not to say that you will see instant growth online overnight from just doing just a cover. As a result, it will require work optimising your video with the correct tags and pushing it into relevant groups and forums also to see results.

This is just one of the techniques I have seen from artists who went on to claim huge success.

Do you know why it works? Because you are going straight to potential fans of your music.

Therefore give it a go and found out the power of recording covers for yourself.
