A Cool Devotion is a solo project by Maximilian Rix (Born Massimiliano Rizzo,1969), helped by Tony Vitali (Born 1965). Influences come from various bands of the eighties like The Cure, Marillion, Pink Floyd, U2.
This Duo started to collaborate in 2004, the year in which all the material for the album “Bleedthrough” was composed. Maximilian has been in various Rome based bands before: The Verve (A rock cover band of the eighties, role: bass player), The Lovecats (The Cure tribute band, role: singer and bass player), the Hype (U2 tribute band, role: guitar player and backing vocals). Tony Vitali is a jazz lover and a self-employed guitar teacher.
The debut album “Bleedthrough” did moderately well at North American and Australian indie radios, the first single “Petrified” reached number one on numberonemusic.com charts.
In 2005 Tony Vitali quit but a new album ("Falling From Grace") has just come out, composed and performed only by Maximilian. The album is available for pre-listening and order at the official site www.acooldevotion.com. The first single from “Falling From Grace” (You Are My Treason) made its debut at number 9 after only one month from the release date. The third album "Atonemnt" exit sheduled date is September 2008 and the first free single "Lost In You" is right here. Other three free singles from previous albums are downloadable for free on www.acooldevotion.com. At the end of May 2008 769fans are on A Cool Devotion mailing list and things are in forward motion.
