About Kristen Budde

Kristen Budde, Tennessee based singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, crafts songs that are honest and thoughtful with lyrics that are woven together like a conversation with a close friend. With vocals and melodies that can be both powerful and gentle, Kristen’s music is a blend of Americana and folk and her voice has been described as bringing life and light into a room. Kristen has a passion for creating joy-filled connection through the power of music and wholeheartedly believes that music has the ability to heal us.

Budde made her musical debut in 2022 when she released her first single 'Come Sit Down at My Table' which was inspired by hospitality she was shown by dear friends and delves into our need to belong and be seen and heard. Her debut 6-song EP 'Begin Again' was released throughout 2023 and was a fulfillment a life long dream! The songs on Begin Again will take listeners on a journey through wrestling with fear, letting go and finding the courage to truly live. Kristen hopes these songs will inspire courage for listeners to take brave steps to build lives they love and will give hope that it's possible to begin again.

When Kristen’s not busy working on music, you can probably find her sipping coffee on her back porch or singing silly songs she made up for her family and pets!
