Young artists need to do several sacrifices in order to step up their game in the industry, Peter says to SBS Greek.  

Peter’s latest song was recently released and it is called “Where did you go?”. 

There are some Greek lyrics at the beginning of the songs because he wants to make an impact on the Melbourne music scene.

He wanted to embrace his heritage and his culture and infuse it into my music, make a difference, inspire and have that point of difference from everyone else, he told SBS Greek.

He produced this song with International producer Jarrad Rogers who has worked with people from Demi Lovato, Lana Delray, and many more.

Peter states that he wants to celebrate his heritage and make people aware of his electro/pop Greek English artistry.
