Percussionist • Educator • Artist • Creator

Rhythm is a language.

Baba Eddie brings West African rhythm, movement, music education and contemporary creativity together through performance, teaching and creation.

The Rhythm

Rhythmismorethansound.

Rhythm teaches us how to listen, move, communicate and connect.

Baba Eddie uses percussion as a bridge between culture, education, movement and creativity.

The drum is not just something you play. It is something you touch, listen to, and communicate through.
