TSA is a Polish hard rock and heavy metal band.

As is the case with the vast majority of heavy metal bands with acronym-based names, there appears to have been no actual meaning behind TSA's name, although in a 2003 press release one of the founders claimed that the acronym originally meant "Tajne Stowarzyszenie Abstynentow", i.e. "Teetotalers' Anonymous."

TSA`s song, "Zwierzenia Kontestatora" ("Confessions of a Contestant") is used in a musical documentary "Behind the Iron Curtain", which documents the first visit of the heavy metal band Iron Maiden to Poland and other countries of the eastern block. The song is used as background music during the scene filmed in the music club Remont

TSA`s song "Marsz Wilków" ("The Marching of the Wolves") is used in a polish 1983 children`s movie "Akademia Pana Kleksa" ("Academy of Mr. Kleks")
