The OneUps

The OneUps at VGM CON 2025

Since our first show in 2002, we have been traveling the galaxy playing video game music for hungry fans. We have performed at the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX), MAGFest, Game Developers Conference, and more nerd weddings than we can count. We have been featured on CNN, MSNBC, and numerous print and digital gaming outlets. We served as Yoko Shimomura’s (Street Fighter II, Kingdom Hearts, Super Mario RPG) backing band for a performance in Mexico City, have played on stage with both David Wise (Donkey Kong Country, Battletoads) and with Lena Raine (Celeste, Minecraft). Our Mission: To continue to explore the video game music of our youth, to seek out new video game music and new genre possibilities – To boldly go where no band has gone before…
