Jensen was raised in Edmonton, until he was 10.[6]
Jensen 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[1] 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, due to becoming a father.[7]
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. [8]
