SAN DIEGO, June 9 /PRNewswire/ -- The widely popular Norteno band, Los Tucanes de Tijuana, will perform in San Diego on Father's Day as part of a 30-city U.S. tour called Coors Light Onda Nortena Gira 2005.

Los Tucanes has become an ambassador to Mexican music selling more than 10 million copies of its CDs globally since 1987.

Last November, the band released two albums, "Virus del Amor" and "Fiesta en la Sierra".
