Denyse LePage, one half of the beloved Canadian disco duo Lime, passed away on May 20, 2026, following a stroke. She was a founding member of the group alongside her husband, Denis LePage, forming one of Montreal, Quebec’s most celebrated dance music acts.

Together, Denis and Denyse brought Lime to international prominence, scoring a number one U.S. Dance hit with “Your Love” in 1981 — a gold record that topped the Billboard Disco chart. The duo went on to release a string of albums and singles throughout the 1980s and beyond, including the beloved hit “Babe, We’re Gonna Love Tonight” and “Unexpected Lovers,” cementing their legacy in the Hi-NRG and post-disco genres. Their catalog spans more than a decade of studio albums, from their 1981 debut through releases well into the 2000s.

Denyse’s passing comes less than three years after the death of her husband Denis, who died from cancer on August 21, 2023, at the age of 74. The two had continued to perform together for decades, with Lime remaining active as recently as 2018. With her death, an era of Canadian dance music history comes to a close.
