For the CeeC (and anybody else that's interested) here's some Maria McKee, both during and after her days with Lone Justice.
Why she has never been a household name, I do not know. Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks is a huge fan and even did one of her songs on Wide Open Spaces. Patty Loveless covered Maria on Don't Toss Us Away and Quentin Tarantino included her on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack, one of my favorite Maria tunes If Love Is A Red Dress (Hang Me In Rags).
Maria made me want to move back West so I could hang out at the Palomino. Heh.

3. Shelter - Lone Justice - Maria McKee

omg, I LOVED Lone Justice!! Apparently, I had forgotten about them until you said this, I may have to do some song searching.
"You Gotta Sin To Get Saved" is still one of my favorites. Her voice blends quite well with Gary Louris.
They had an appearance on SNL back in the day as musical guest. Shatner was the host. It was during one of the more forgettable SNL eras, but Lone Justice made an impact that night.
You Got To Sin to Get Saved and Am I The Only One (Who Ever Felt This Way)are two of my favs.
