Get to know Australia’s viral sensation @RickyRosen_ with “Dim The Lights”

RICKY ROSEN, “Dim The Lights”

During the past month, Sydney, Australia’s Ricky Rosen has surfaced in my Instagram feed several times, covering songs as varied as the classic “Dream A Little Dream Of Me” through to ones by Frank Ocean, Justin Bieber and Miguel, so I had to check and see if he had any recorded material online.  The medical student first came to prominence last year on Tik Tok with his cover of Colbie Caillat’s “Bubbly” sung in 5 different accents.  Simply put, Ricky’s got a dreamy voice with rich tones that make listeners swoon.  His most recent original single “Dim The Lights” also shows potential for Ricky as a songwriter. He’s nailed his style down pat – pop/jazz with a soulful edge. It’s very reminiscent of Harry Connick Jr. when he arrived on the scene in the 80’s, although online comparisons to Michael Bublé are already in full force.  Ricky Rosen is definitely someone to watch for – the music industry will not let viral talent get away with so much natural vocal talent.
