Regulatory bodies represent copyright holders across the world so a licence from your native organisation should cover you for any music you will be playing.
At the bottom of this article is a list containing the names of regulatory bodies across the world, as well as links to their websites. However, this list is not comprehensive, so if your country is missing it is best to contact your local government for information on which organisations provide licences.
The licence would have to be purchased for the country the owner lives in, making sure it has permissions to play music in the country the station broadcasts to. For instance, if the owner of a station lived in the UK, but broadcast in the USA, they would need licences from PPL and PRS.
Not specifically for that music as the purpose of the licence is to make sure royalties can go to the appropriate artists and publishers, which does not apply for out of copyright music as it is considered to be public property under law. However, be sure to double check songs to make sure they’re actually out of copyright!
