Appaloosa is a band composed of lyricist/vocalist Anne-Laure Keib and musician Max Krefeld. The pair met when Anne-Laure left her native Paris to spend time in Berlin and together they formed Appaloosa there in June 2006.[Ref 1]
Keib writes the lyrics and serves as the bands vocalist and front-woman. Krefeld writes the music which frequently involves programming and the use of synthesizers.
