Looking for a Bash loop command to rename a directory of files, inserting a whitespace before and after a dash

I have a directory with files such as:

01-artist name-song name 1.mp3  02-artist name-song name 2.mp3  03-artist name-song name 3.mp3  etc.  

I am looking for a loop command to rename the files, so they become:

01 - artist name - song name 1.mp3  02 - artist name - song name 2.mp3  03 - artist name - song name 3.mp3  etc.  

Essentially, I need a whitespace to be inserted before and after every dash. Thank you for your help.
