Template:Infobox musical artist 2 Richard Dean Muscat (born in Darwin but now living in Melbourne, Australia), is an Australian male singer and a Top 12 contestant in Australian Idol 4 from Werribee, Victoria, Australia. He lives with his mother, and works at a chemical factory.

When Ricky was just 9, his father, a drummer, used to take him to the local pub where he would sing '60s hits for the locals. Ricky continued to develop his singing, by performing in choirs before joining a covers band, playing the local circuit and gaining invaluable experience as a performer. Lately, Ricky has found his voice, concentrating on urban music and house. Ricky is of Maltese ethinicity.

Ricky also participates in the Western Region Football League.

Australian Idol

Ricky gained first attention at the Melbourne auditions of Australian Idol 4 by singing Shai's "If I Ever Fall In Love Again" and winning the judges over to make the Top 124 in Sydney. Following a controversial falling out on day two of the theatre round with trio member Jorge Bec, Ricky gained a place in the Top 24. During the first semi final round, Ricky sang "So Sick" by Ne-Yo but did not accrue enough votes to advance.

On September 4, the judges advanced Ricky into the Top 12 as the first of four successful wildcard contestants.

On September 27, the top 12 performed at federation square. This was a huge day for him as he performed infront of an estimated 10,000 people.

On October 30, Ricky was voted off the show following his performance of "To Love Somebody" by The Bee Gees. Dean Geyer and Damien Leith made up the bottom 3.
