Patrik Jensen

Patrik Niels Jensen (born 24 November 1969) is a Swedish guitarist. He is a guitarist and founding member of the extreme metal bands The Haunted (1996–present) and Witchery (1997–present), and also a former guitarist for Orchriste (1987–1990), Seance (1990–1995) and Satanic Slaughter (1994–1996).

Jensen was raised in Edmonton, Canada until he was 10. 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).

In 2013, Jensen played some live shows with In Flames for Niclas Engelin when Engelin was unable to play. As of 2021, Jensen serves as a part-time touring guitarist for The Halo Effect replacing Jesper Stromblad when he is unable to play due to ongoing illness. Jensen also played with Haunted bandmates in At The Gates at Wacken Open Air in 2022 following the departure of Jonas Stålhammar.
