Richard Colburn (born on 25 July 1970) is the drummer of the Scottish indie band Belle & Sebastian. He is a founding member of the band. Before becoming a drummer for Belle & Sebastian, he was a semi-professional Snooker player. His nickname is "Rico" and he also DJs. He hails from the Scottish town of Perth. He drummed on early Snow Patrol sessions and is one of the founding members of The Reindeer Section.
Prior to that Richard had a stint working in Virgin Records in Union Street in Glasgow. Whenever he plays drums for Belle and Sebastian he always, superstitiously wears the same old Perthshire Advertiser T Shirt which he has owned for years. Much to the amusement of the other band members.
