Jari Mäenpää
A friend of mine gave me a suggestion to talk about guitarists to really demonstrate the talent in metal bands. So heres my new "Real Guitar Hero" section.
Jari is the founding member of Wintersun. He performs both vocal duties and guitars, and actually did all keyboard and bass duties on the first Wintersun release. Before creating Wintersun, Jari was best known for being in folk/viking metal band Ensiferum. Jari himself has said he has a very "heroic" sound to his melodies which I personally believe attributes from the overall folk/viking style he tends to flourish in. The use of extremely fast sweep-picking solos keeps up with equal pace of Wintersun's music that creates a sound that is indubitaly a very distinct signature sound.
