In 2005, Seventh Wonder released their first full-length studio album, ''Become''. It was followed in 2006 by ''Waiting in the Wings''. In 2008, they released the critically acclaimed concept album ''Mercy Falls''. They followed this with the very successful ''The Great Escape'', which was released in 2010. Their most recent studio album is ''Tiara'', released in 2018.
Blomqvist's playing style frequently incorporates techniques such as fretboard tapping and sections of fast arpeggios, such as his bass solo in ''Walking Tall'' from ''Waiting in the Wings''. He primarily uses a 6-string Bass Guitar for recording and live performances. On the song ''Long Way Home'' from '' The Great Escape'', he played a fretless bass. He has listed Marcel Jacob (Talisman, Yngwie Malmsteen) and Thomas Miller (ex Symphony X) as his most important influences.
Blomqvist also does the majority of Seventh Wonder's interviews, writes much of the music and appears to have been the driving force in the band. Blomqvist also acts as the band's lyricist together with singer Tommy Karevik. Provided by Wikipedia
