Babel Entertainment announced on Monday that composer Nobuo Uematsu and his band Earthbound Papas will perform at the Naka-Kon Winter Concert 2014 on November 29 at Overland Park Convention Center in Kansas. Composer Jason Hayes (World of Warcraft) will also perform with his tribute band Critical Hit.

Earthbound Papas' members include Uematsu on keyboard and organs, Michio Okamiya on guitar, Yoshitaka Hirota on bass, Tsutomu Narita on keyboard and guitar, Chihiro Fujioka on drums, and vocalists CHiCO, Hiromi Baba, Yasuo Sasai, and Fubito Endo.

In addition to composing most of the Final Fantasy games, Uematsu also scored the Chrono Trigger game with Yasunori Mitsuda the primary composer, the Blue Dragon game and anime franchise, the Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children film, Ah! My Goddess: The Movie, and Guin Saga.

Naka-Kon is offering 60 VIP passes which will give the holders preferred seating near the stage at the concert, an Earthbound Papas/Critical Hit Concert T-shirt, pre-signed CDs and posters, a photo opportunity with the bands, and a chance to win games signed by Nobuo Uematsu and Jason Hayes.
