Many of us are lucky enough to love artists who we consider to be “hidden treasures.” These artists are not well-known by mainstream music fans, and to be honest, and we sort-of like it that way. While many of us would love it if more people came to appreciate music from our favorite artists, we also feel special in knowing that we are among the few on the planet who’s in on the secret. Peter Bence is one of those artists you might not hear a lot about in America, but that doesn’t mean he’s not one of the most talented musicians in the world!
