Wilderness Road was a rock band founded in 1968 by musicians Warren Leming, Nate Herman, and relatives Andy and Tom Haban. The group, which performed an elaborate stage show, drew on American folklore, and was active in the Anti-War, and Peace Movements of the late 1960s and early 1970s central to Chicago's counterculture movement of the period.

Wilderness Road released two albums, Wilderness Road and Sold for the Prevention of Disease Only, and the group was originally formed to raise money for the Chicago Seven. The band also held staged events in the early 1970s such as the "Passover-Easter Spectacular" and "The Last Brunch", and also made commercials for places like "Spinoza's Torah Center".
