Eastern Lane was an indie rock group from Berwick-upon-Tweed, England, featuring members Derek Meins (vocals and guitar), Andrew Lawton (guitar), Stuart Newlands (bass), and Danny Ferguson (drums). The band was established in 2001 and took their name from a local street in their place of origin.
Their discography includes two albums released under the Rough Trade label: Shades of Black in 2003 and The Article in 2005. The song "Feed Your Addiction" earned recognition by being featured in an HSBC commercial.
In late 2006, the group dissolved, attributing the breakup to difficulties with their record label and financial issues that prevented them from producing new works. After the disbandment, Derek Meins pursued a solo project known as The Agitator.
