Biography
Bok grew up in Milan and attended the Collegio San Carlo before transferring to the American School of Milan. He plays both guitar and piano. In the spring of 2017, he participated in the Italian talent show Italia's Got Talent.
In 2017, he signed with German producer Oliver deVille and released his debut single "Just One Lie", followed by a tour in Germany and an appearance on the television program ZDF-Fernsehgarten.

Grammy Award nomination

X Factor Italy 2026
In 2026, Bok entered the 20th edition of the Italian talent show X Factor Italy. After passing the initial Auditions and qualifying from the Bootcamps, he advanced to the Last Call stage.
During the Last Calls, Bok performed in the final duel under mentor Francesco Gabbani, who ultimately opted to use his X-Pass on another contestant, resulting in Bok's initial elimination just short of the live shows. However, show host Giorgia was granted two wild-card "X-Passes" allowing her to select eliminated contestants for a public vote. The selected acts will face a repêchage runoff during the first Live Show, where a televote by the viewing audience will determine who earns the final spot in the live competition.
During the first Live Show on 22 October 2026, Bok won the public televote and was successfully reinstated into the competition. As a result of the repêchage, he officially joined Francesco Gabbani’s final category for the remainder of the live episodes.
