East of Eden foi uma banda de rock britânica, que fez algum sucesso nos anos 1970-1980. Tinham um estilo que misturava rock, jazz e alguns toques de rock progressivo.

East of Eden was a British progressive rock band, who had a Top 10 hit in the UK with the single, “Jig-a-Jig”, in 1971. The track became something of a stylistic albatross around the band’s neck, since it did not resemble their usual sound or anything else they normally played. Although some might consider this group as being a symphonic progressive band, others state that their style is mostly jazz oriented. Combining flutes, violins and tape loops to folk, gypsy and psychedelic music, the East of Eden style was always heavily supported on a pure rock base; strong and experimental
