Biography

David Michael Tyson is a Canadian rock producer and songwriter. He is best known for co-writing Alannah Myles' 1990 single "Black Velvet" (with Christopher Ward), which peaked the Billboard Hot 100, along with producing its parent album. He also co-wrote three hit songs (with Dean McTaggart) from Amanda Marshall's self-titled 1995 debut album. Tyson has won three Juno Awards for his work, mainly in the 1990s. Most notably he was awarded the Producer of the Year in 1991 for his work on Jude Cole's A View from 3rd Street album, and Songwriter of the Year for his work with Hall & Oates.
