Sigrid Bernson is best known to the Swedish public for being a professional dancer on the Swedish version of "Strictly Come Dancing" on which she has taken home the victory three times, one of which was with Benjamin Ingrosso. In more recent months she has taken on the title of pop artist with a series of single releases. Now that she has made it into Melodifestivalen, she will premiere a song called "Patrick Swayze" with a staging designed around her signature colour of yellow and her stand-out charisma.

Watch our press conference interviews with Sigrid Bernson and John Lundvik here:

John Lundvik has spent many years in Sweden's music scene as both a songwriter and demo vocalist. He has often teased at being a solo artist but this is one of the biggest steps he has taken to showcase himself, with his only other brush with the contest being a participation as a songwriter for Anton Ewald's "Natural" back in 2014. His song is a moving ballad that he wrote about his desire to break out as a solo artist and will feature a simple staging that keeps the focus on himself and his vocals.
