Comment on "A guitarist who's also an astronaut" sounds more impressive than "An astronaut who plays the guitar", despite both meaning the same thing.

Not to me.

Katy Perry is ostensibly an “astronaut”. Not a pilot, not someone who trained for years to lead science experiments in space, just a guitarist who’s also an astronaut.

  Don’t have an opinion on that, or rather I can go bot h ways. Astronaut literally means space traveler. 🤷🏻
