Jonas is a very important part of Roxette, Jonas is said to be the best guitarist in Sweden. For example, when Europe had their breakthrough with the song, "The Final Countdown", their first choice for a new guitarist was Jonas. He contributes many important ideas to the songs (including the guitar intro to "The Look"). Jonas has played electric guitar (almost all the lead parts and also backing and acoustic guitars) on all Roxette albums from "Pearls of Passion" through to "Crash! Boom! Bang!. Featured in Roxette's MTV Unplugged appearance. Appears on "Have A Nice Day".
