Nashville Branson blended Jukebox Winos are no strangers to the stage with over 900 shows performed to date; including opening for national and regional favorite bands: Nicole Witt, The Honkytonk Renovators, The Mark Chapman Band, and Papa Green Shoes. Influenced by an impressive lineup of rock, country, and Americana icons like Tom Petty, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, CCR, Eagles, Stevie Nicks, Dolly Pardon, Miranda Lambert, Emmylou Harris, Chris Stapleton, John Prine, and so many more; their music is a vibrant tapestry of timeless classics that will have you singing along and dancing from the first note.
But the magic doesn't stop there! They also bring their own unique flavor to the stage with their original songs, showcasing their exceptional talent as both performers and songwriters. It's a night that promises to entertain and delight music lovers of all ages.
Greg McFaden, raised in Nashville, started on drums at the age of 8, and learned rhythm guitar in his 20's. He puts his many years of music experience, along with his audio engineering degree from Full Sail to work for Jukebox Winos.
Debbie Olson, raised in Branson, started singing 12 years ago. Her message is "It's never to late to follow your hearts desires + share God-given talents”. She's loved writing poetry from an early age; and in the last 9 years has focused on learning song-crafting. She really enjoys the co-writing process and has met so many talented writers along the way.

Kristen Budde and Dillon Hamilton have been performing together as a duo for well over a decade. They met in 2009 after both moving to Cincinnati, Ohio and quickly realized a mutual love for acoustic music and performing. Kristen and Dillon have a sound reminiscent of The Civil Wars, Fleetwood Mac and Chris and Morgane Stapleton as they weave together beautiful harmonies accompanied by acoustic guitar and fiddle. Their catalog ranges from covers of well-known and loved classic pop songs from Michael Jackson to The Eagles, quirky lesser known tunes and Kristen’s original songs. They usually have a couple fun surprises up their sleeves too! Blend all that together and you have an unforgettable performance you can sing along with, laugh or cry to and is sure to leave you feeling uplifted!
Originally from Illinois, Kristen has called several places in the US home, but now resides in Nashville, Tennessee where she and her husband relocated in 2020. Since making that move she has been actively pursuing a career as an independent artist and began releasing her original music in 2022 and has been named ‘One to Watch’ by the Nashville Songwriters Association International. Dillon hails from Cleveland, Ohio and currently calls Cincinnati, Ohio home. Prior to his musical partnership with Kristen, Dillon performed with bands Madison East and Bolivar in the Cleveland area. Dillion currently serves as the worship minister at Echo Church in Cincinnati.
In spite of distance since Budde's move to Nashville, the duo have continued their musical partnership. Dillon lent his vocals to Kristen’s very first song recording and release, ‘Come Sit Down at My Table’ in 2022 and also joined Budde on her release show tour for her debut EP 'Begin Again' in 2023, both of which can be found on all streaming platforms. Plans for Kristen’s follow up album are in the works for a 2026 release and Budde and Hamilton are excited to share these songs with new and old friends!
