Jethro Tull es el nombre de una original banda de rock progresivo escocesa, que comenzó sus andaduras en 1968 y que, desde entonces, ha trabajado de forma ininterrumpida hasta el día de hoy, siendo, tras Rolling Stones (1962) y Le Orme (1966), entre otros, uno de los grupos de rock más antiguos todavía activo.
El nombre de la banda, extraño como suena, tiene un origen no menos particular. Su agente revisó libros de historia y llegó con el nombre de Jethro Tull
