Juanes to visit the states in early 2006

Colombian singer/songwriter Juanes will support a forthcoming special edition of his latest album, "Mi Sangre," with a U.S. tour that launches early next year.

The outing kicks off Jan. 28 in Florida, and dates so far stretch into early March. Currently, the run is capped by a pair of Canadian stops, as shown in the itinerary below.

On Nov. 15, Juanes will offer up "Mi Sangre Tour Edition," a retooled version of last year's "Mi Sangre." Limited to only 150,000 individually numbered copies, the disc will house all of the tracks found on the original album, as well as a number of bonus tracks, including live renditions of several hits, a collaboration with Black Eyed Peas, a remix of "La Camisa Negra" and the previously unreleased song "Lo Que Importa," according to a press release.

"Mia Sangre Tour Edition" will also include a DVD featuring music videos for the "Mi Sangre" hits "Nada Valgo Sin Tu Amor," "Volverte a Ver" and "La Camisa Negra," as well as additional promotional material.

On Thursday (11/3), Juanes will find out whether he'll be adding any new Latin Grammy trophies to his collection; he's vying for Best Rock Solo Vocal Album ("Mi Sangre"), Best Rock Song ("Nada Valgo Sin Tu Amor") and Best Music Video ("Volverte A Ver").

The 6th Annual Latin Grammy Awards ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, and will air live on the Univision Network, according to a press release.

"Mi Sangre" is the follow-up to 2002's "Un Dia Normal," which earned Juanes a Latin Grammy for Album of the Year. "Es Por Ti," a track from that album, garnered additional Latin Grammys for Song and Record of the Year.

Released last September, "Mi Sangre" debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Top Latin Albums and Latin Pop Albums charts, and at No. 33 on The Billboard 200.

Juanes recently drew a crowd of 150,000 fans to a single show in his hometown of Medellin, according to his publicist.
