An eefer is someone who performs eefing — a percussive American folk vocal technique where the performer makes rhythmic sounds in the throat and chest to create a kind of body-drum beat. Eefing is associated with Appalachian and rural American musical traditions. The eefer keeps time, produces melody and rhythm simultaneously, and is a living link to an unusual folk art form.
The eefer stepped up during the breakdown and had the whole barn stomping along.
