Edin-Ådahl was a Swedish contemporary Christian band founded in 1977 consisting of two sets of brothers: Bertil and Lasse Edin and Simon and Frank Ådahl. Throughout their career they released several studio albums, both in Swedish and in English.

They are best known internationally for representing their home country in the Eurovision Song Contest 1990 in Zagreb with the song "Som en vind", which finished in 16th place with 24 points, giving the country its worst result in sixteen years.

They made a second attempt to represent their home country in Rome but finished as runner up to eventual Contest winning entry "Fångad av en stormvind" by Carola.

Following their split, Simon Ådahl participated in 1995 together with Lasse Edin in Melodifestivalen but finished in last place in the final. Frank Ådahl voiced Simba in the Swedish dub of the 1994 Disney animated film "The Lion King" while the other former members continued to release their own solo material.
