Effi Ciency

Effi Ciency, short Eff, is the singer and songwriter of Berlin based indietronica duo Box of Chocolates. She's a classically trained soprano with a broad range of vocal color, tone and expression.
Her voice, that can sound both clear and strong as well as gentle and intimate, has been compared to such diverse artists as Kate Bush, PJ Harvey and Heather Nova. She often surprises her audience by switching between different techniques like powerful belting or operatic singing.
In her lyrics, she's been influenced by Eddie Vedder's emotional authenticity, Nick Cave's strangeness as well as Sven Regener's meticulous precision. Topics of her songs evolve around questions of human relatedness in all its mundane and extreme forms.
