(January 20, 2017) He was born in Italy from an Italian mother and a German father and has always lived in our country. Despite his young age, he is already a little big talent and an all-round performer: he sings, dances and plays but is also a songwriter. He is Matteo Markus Bok and is now preparing to return with a new single: the new pop song of the young Italian-German songwriter will be released all over the world, starting May 12 in Germany (and at the end of May in Italy), "Just One Lie", with Music Television label and Sony Music distribution. The song was written by Richard Hamersma and Seann Bowe. The single, which will be accompanied by the video clip that is released at the same time and will be presented the same day with a show at Cologne Arena, has a B-side entitled "Miracle" written by American authors Mike "G" Guerriero (author of songs that were at the top of American Billboard charts) and Arty Skye (already working with Will Smith, Pink, Santana, Madonna and Alicia Keys). On May 1, Matteo will also be among the protagonists of Bildrenntag 2017 in Gelsenkirchen (Germany). The promotional tour, which will stop in numerous stores and dance schools, will touch the main German cities, starting from Hamburg and Munich. The preview of the tour took place on the occasion of the famous dance event held every year in Germany at the Maritim Hotel in Düsseldorf, where Matteo presented the tutorial in which he dances on the notes of his new piece, "Just one lie", teaching the choreography created by Italian Caterina Buratti.
