Lone Justice emerged in 1982, initially conceived by vocalist Maria McKee and guitarist Ryan Hedgecock as a vehicle for country and rockabilly covers. The lineup solidified with the addition of bassist Marvin Etzioni and drummer Don Heffington, leading to a record deal with Geffen Records.

Their self-titled debut album, Lone Justice, featured standout tracks such as "Sweet, Sweet Baby (I'm Falling)" and the Tom Petty-penned "Ways To Be Wicked." Despite critical acclaim and infectious melodies, the album struggled commercially. Its sound proved polarizing, perceived as too country for rock audiences and too contemporary for traditional country fans. The album's sales were consequently poor.
