No, the MPMusicPlayerController will only play music from the Media Library (That's why its located in the MP/MediaPlayer framework) You'll need to use the AVAudioPlayer or the AVPlayer class. A bit more work implementing that unfortunately.

Something along the lines of this should get you started:

NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/audiofile.mp3",      [[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath]]];

NSError *error;
audioPlayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:url error:&error];
audioPlayer.numberOfLoops = -1;

if (audioPlayer == nil)
    NSLog([error description]);
else
    [audioPlayer play];
