That's a pretty fair description I read of "eephing," an Appalachian vocal technique first performed in the early 1900s, if not before. NPR did a neat little piece about it earlier this spring. The acknowledged master of the genre (it says so on Wikipedia) was Jimmie Riddle; here he is doing his thing on Hee Haw, with Jackie Phelps on hambone.
A warning. This clip is only 11 seconds long, but you're going to want to see it over and over and wish you had the capability to make a remix with it.
