Coverville is a podcast featuring cover versions of pop, rock and country songs by new and established performers.
[1][2] Coverville was also part of the programming of the experimental KYCY-AM "open source radio" station San Francisco during the mid-2000s.
Ibbott, who wanted to be a disc jockey as a child,[3] began his DJ career at weddings, though was bored with the music selection such venues permitted.
One month after beginning the podcase, Ibbott contacted major performance rights organisations (initially ASCAP and BMI) to explain the technology and delivery methods behind podcasting and to license music for Coverville.
[15] For the first part of its run, a typical episode of Coverville had about six cover songs, and was generally released on a three-per-week schedule.
