  • Summary

  • In this episode of the IDD Health Matters Podcast, Dr. Craig Escudé sits down with Eddie Tuduri, a world-class drummer whose career included playing with legends like The Beach Boys, Loggins & Messina, Del Shannon, and Ricky Nelson. But in 1997, a life-altering accident left him paralyzed—an event that ultimately led him to create the Rhythmic Arts Project (TRAP), a groundbreaking program that uses rhythm and percussion to enhance learning, communication, and rehabilitation for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).

    Eddie shares his inspiring story of resilience, the impact of music in therapy, and how his passion for drumming transformed into a global movement. He and Dr. Escudé discuss the importance of presuming competence, staying inquisitive, and the power of volunteering in making a meaningful impact on the lives of people with disabilities.
