The group's sound has been described as a combination of Americana, country, and rock n' roll.
In 2013, Suzie McNeil began working on a duo project with previous songwriting collaborator Marti Frederiksen, which was reportedly intended to follow in the style of American country trio Lady Antebellum.
Instead, in 2014 the two teamed up with Grammy-winning country singer Rebecca Lynn Howard and Andrew Mactaggart, Sarah Tomek and husband, songwriter Elisha Hoffman to form the band Loving Mary, which they envisioned as a sort of modern-day Fleetwood Mac.

In 2017, Loving Mary joined Gretchen Wilson on a multi-city tour in support of her album Ready to Get Rowdy.
