Kate Radley (born 19 February 1967) was a keyboard player for the British rock band Spiritualized,[1][2] and was, for part of her tenure with the band, in a long-term relationship with the band's frontman and principal creative force, Jason Pierce.[2] She was a member during the time period which saw the release of the Lazer Guided Melodies, Pure Phase and Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space albums, before leaving the band in 1997.[1]

She has been married to musician Richard Ashcroft[3] since 1995.[4] The couple's first son, Sonny, was born on 23 March 2000.[4] In 2004, their second son, Cassius, was born.[4] Since her marriage, Radley has left the music industry. However, she still provides keyboard session work for several of Ashcroft's solo albums but not the live performances.
