He is a guitarist and founding member of the extreme metal bands The Haunted (1996–present)[3] and Witchery (1997–present),[4] and also a former guitarist for Orchriste (1987–1990), Seance (1990–1995)[5] and Satanic Slaughter (1994–1996).[6]

Jensen was raised in Edmonton, Canada until he was 10.[7] He received his first guitar when he was seven years old, but started playing when he was sixteen years old – he took guitar lessons for five years thereafter. Jensen plays his signature E1.6 Jensen from Solar Guitars and uses Engl amplification and EMG pick-ups (85/81).
