KatieJane (Katrina Jane) Garside (born July 8, 1968) is a vocalist and lyricist who fronted the first incarnation of the band Daisy Chainsaw and sang guest vocals for the industrial act Test Department. After retiring from the music world temporarily, she now sings with Queen Adreena, an independent rock band from London.

She has also worked in performance art and photography. In late 2007, her exhibition darling, they've found the body was shown at WOOM in Birmingham. She has previously exhibited, in 2005, at the Institute of Contemporary Art in London; Queen Adreena also recorded a live album there (Live at the ICA (2005)).

She released a collection of home recordings called Lalleshwari / Lullabies in a Glasswilderness in 2006. As part of their extensive collaboration, James Sutton also made a collection of short films to go with this album.

Garside also co-created the comic book entitled Indigo Vertigo with Daniel Schaffer. Another comic book produced with Daniel Schaffer is "Lesions in the Brain".

Most recently, KatieJane is collaborating with Chris Whittingham in a project called Ruby Throat. They have released one album, The Ventriloquist.

Her sister, Melanie Garside, also has a career in music, and was briefly the bass player for Queen Adreena.

Former Hole frontwoman Courtney Love once cited KatieJane as one of the first real Riot Grrrls, along with Kat Bjelland of Babes in Toyland and herself.[citation needed]

The song Metal Mickey (song) by Suede (band) is said to have been written with KatieJane in mind.
