Lime is a Canadian disco band from Montreal, Quebec. The group was originally composed of married couple Denis and Denyse LePage who had a 1981 number one US Dance hit with "Your Love".[2] They continued to perform as recently as 2018, although others have also performed under the name of Lime.[3][4]

History

In 1979, Denis LePage wrote, arranged, and released an instrumental 12" single vinyl record called "The Break" under the name Kat Mandu. It appeared first on Unidisc Records. The single was successful and peaked at number three on Billboard's Disco chart.[5] Lime released their debut album Your Love in 1981.[2] The title track was a gold record and a #1 Billboard Disco-chart hit in the US.[6] 1982 saw the release of Lime's second album Lime II supported by the single "Babe We're Gonna Love Tonight", which reached #6 on the Billboard Dance Chart.[6]

Although known for their work with Unidisc, the band also had ties to the Matra label.[7] Later in the band's run, Denis transitioned and they continued to perform together, however there have also been performances by Joy Dorris and Rob Hubertz under the brand of Lime.[8][9]

Denis LePage died from cancer on August 21, 2023, at the age of 74.[10]
