Early life
Manuel Ríos Fernández was born on 17 December 1998 in Calzada de Calatrava, a village in the province of Ciudad Real, in the autonomous community of Castilla–La Mancha.[3] His mother is a hairdresser and his father is an electrician.[4] When Ríos was five years old, he would sing for the clients in his mother's hair salon.[5] He made his television debut at the age of nine when he was cast in Cantando en familia after his mother received a phone call from a local Spanish television looking for young talent.[6] In the following year, he participated as a dancer in ¡Tu sí que vales!, a Spanish talent show.[7][8] At that age, he also began uploading covers of popular songs on YouTube, earning him the nickname "the Spanish Justin Bieber".[5][9] He studied classical ballet and street dance, and won the Spanish Championships in hip hop dance as a member of the dance crew Sweet Babies.[10] He was also a member of Parchís in its 2012 relaunch, a children's musical band with which he released an album and toured throughout Spain.[10][11] In addition, he portrayed Gavroche in the musical Les Misérables.[12]
In 2013, Ríos signed a 6-year contract with a Grammy Award winning music producer Richy Peña, and moved with his parents and brother to the United States to pursue a music career.[6][13] His social media presence caught the attention of modeling agencies, and at age 19, Ríos signed with Next Management worldwide.[14]

His work on his debut EP has been postponed, but he has confirmed he will release it in the future.[40][41] Ríos characterized the songs he had written as alternative pop with dark elements.[42][43] He can play the guitar and piano and has cited Lorde, Frank Ocean and Lana Del Rey as some of his musical influences.[44][45][42] In a cover story with Vogue Man Hong Kong, Ríos referred to the songwriting process as "therapeutic".[2][42]
