Denise Johnson (31 August 1966 – 27 July 2020) was a singer from Manchester who provided vocals for many bands, including Electronic, New Order and Primal Scream. She joined the band A Certain Ratio (aka ACR or A.C.R., though the correct tag is A Certain Ratio) around 1990. A Certain Ratio are a post-punk/funk band from Manchester, UK. Formed in the late 1970s, they were one of the bands (along with Gang of Four and The Pop Group) who forged the new musical hybrid which became known as punk-funk, a style which fused the energy and aggression of new-wave with the rhythms and musicianship of funk and soul.

ACR continue to record and gig, maintaining a loyal following. Their early music has been acknowledged to have influenced bands such as Franz Ferdinand, Radio4, LCD Soundsystem and Interpol.
