Jesper Stromblad

Jesper Strömblad (born on November 28, 1972) is the guitarist and founder of the Swedish melodic death metal band In Flames.

Background Jesper began playing music at age 4, with a violin he played until age 12. At age 12, Jesper no longer considered the violin a cool instrument to play and began playing guitar instead.

Associated acts Jesper is known for having played in and been a founding member of a series of bands and side projects. However, In Flames has remained to date his main band. Jesper is the only remaining original member of In Flames and is the main songwriter for the band.

Side projects  Jesper is currently the bassist of Dimension Zero, a side project which he started with former In Flames guitarist, Glenn Ljungström. Jesper is also currently a member of another side project he started called All Ends, for which he and his In Flames bandmate Björn Gelotte both write the music for. Neither of them plan to play in the side project due to In Flames' demanding schedule, but they continue to aid in writing songs for the band to play.
