What is "Pinoy Blues?"

Blue is the ocean that surrounds the 7000 islands on the blue planet's largest life supporting coral reef.

Blue is the color tied to the word true, as in true blue.

Blue is in the Philippine and the American flags. When we left the Philippines.

We blew it a kiss and promised that wherever our life paths took us, we would always carry the deep soul level memories of our country and our kababayans with us and celebrate the joyful flight our wings have afforded us through art, spoken word, music and the many expressions of our feelings we have been blessed with.

Tutubi Energy

Tutubi Energy enables us to learn from our experiences; prayers; meditations; our introspective journeys, andidentify our personal truth - by doing so we claim our wings and are able to fly. Now is the time to experience your real power and step forth renewed.

The Blue Dragonfly

The Tutubi is the name for the dragonfly in the Philippines. Native Americans believe that the dragonfly animal totem represents transformation and change; a stripping away of all that no longer enhances your existence and thus allows you to fgrow wings and fly.

The members of TUTUBI Blues Band have grown their wings since they started performing in the Washington, DC area since 1967.
