Maria Luisa McKee (born August 17, 1964) is an American singer-songwriter. She is best known for her work with Lone Justice and her 1990 UK solo chart-topping hit, "Show Me Heaven". She is the half-sister of Bryan MacLean, who was best known as a guitarist and vocalist in the band Love.

McKee was a founding member of the cowpunk/country rock band, Lone Justice, in 1982, with whom she released two albums. Several compilations of both previously released and unreleased material and a BBC Live In Concert album have been released since the group disbanded. Her band opened for such acts as U2.

When she was 19, she wrote Feargal Sharkey's 1985 UK number one hit "A Good Heart", a song she has since recorded herself and released on her album Late December. Sharkey would later go on to also cover "To Miss Someone" from McKee's self-titled solo debut, on his third solo album "Songs From The Mardi Gras". In 1987 she was featured in the Robbie Robertson video "Somewhere Down the Crazy River" (directed by Martin Scorsese) and contributed back-up vocals to his debut solo album, which included the song. She released her first solo, self-titled album in 1989.
