Sylvia Tyson (country, folk)

Sylvia Tyson, (born Sylvia Fricker, 19 September 1940 in Chatham, Ontario) is a musician, performer, singer-songwriter and broadcaster. She is best known as part of the folk duo Ian and Sylvia, with Ian Tyson. Since 1993, she has been a member of the all-female folk group Quartette.  From 1959 to 1974, she was half of the popular folk duo Ian & Sylvia with Ian Tyson. The two met after a friend of Tyson heard her sing at a party and let Ian know about her; Tyson had been performing in Toronto clubs as a solo artist, but after he and Fricker met, they decided to work together as a duo. After the Tysons separated and stopped performing together in 1975, Sylvia started a solo career. She was nominated seven times for a Juno Award, the first being in 1987 as Country Female Vocalist of the Year, and was made a member of the Order of Canada in 1994.
