Born on 4 December 1991, she is from Falköping. In addition to being a vocalist in the band, she was also a guitarist. In 2015, Kallin participated in the national selection that selected the act to represent Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015 with the song "Break Me Up". Although credited mainly to Erika Selin, the performance also included Kallin and her brother Charles as accompanying guitarists and backup vocalists. The song was picked as one of the Top 5 for the live show final held on 27 February 2015 on The Late Late Show. The song placed third overall in the selection process, with "Playing with Numbers" by Molly Sterling winning to represent Ireland. In 2018, Kallin released her first solo single "Runaway", accompanied by an official music video, followed by a second single "Don't You Wanna Know", which was released in the same year. The song was co-written by Kallin herself, along with Tony Nilsson. Swedish production duo 528 featured her vocals in the song "Unfeather".
