Jon Henrik Fjällgren was born in 1987 in Cali, Colombia and was given  the name Montoya. During the first months of his life he lived in an  Indian village until he was taken to an orphanage. From there he was  brought to Funäsdalen, Sweden, where he grew up with a family of  reindeer herders and he now goes under the name of Jon Henrik Mario  Fjällgren.

At 14 years old he gave his first concert in the  church in Funäsdalen, with the King and Queen of Sweden in attendance.  One thing led to another and when he was only 16 years old he released  an album called “Onne vielle”.

Jon Henrik debuted in  Melodifestivalen (Melodi Grand Prix) during the spring of 2015 on  national TV where he performed “Jag är fri (Manne Liem Frije)” and came  in 2nd place.
