Flight Attendant isn’t just a band… “They deliver an experience.” 

- Rolling Stone Magazine.

Hailed as a “sonic unicorn” in Nashville’s thriving music scene, Flight Attendant has built a reputation for delivering infectious power-pop hooks, cinematic soundscapes, and unforgettable live performances. This Nashville-based quintet is comprised of Karalyne Winegarner (Lead Vocals, Keys), Vincent Maniscalco (Vocals, Guitar), Nikki Christie (Vocals, Viola), Derek Sprague (Drums), and Peyton Rodeffer (Vocals, Bass). 

What started as two friends blowing off steam after late night bar shifts has grown into an independent music machine. Karalyne, a certified sommelier from Kansas City, met Vinny, a bartender from Boston, at a jam space down the street from their bar. Karalyne began as the band’s drummer and singer, with Vinny on baritone guitar. As their sound evolved, so did the lineup, adding Nikki from Los Angeles, Derek from Boston, and Peyton from Indiana. Together, they have sold out stages in seven countries and played major festivals including SXSW, Boulevardia, Tomato Arts Fest, Crossroads Music Fest, Ohio River Fest and more…. 

Glide Magazine compares lead singer Karalyne Winegarner’s presence to “Freddie Mercury working the crowd in an arena,” While Mundane Magazine says, “Their sound is adjacent to Radiohead’s “OK Computer” with a twist of modern pop.”

Drawing inspiration from artists like Florence + The Machine, Kate Bush, The Killers, and Cage The Elephant… Flight Attendant crafts alternative-pop-rock music that is as compelling as it is unique.

In 2025 the band toured across five countries with sold-out club shows in Boston, Frankfurt, Berlin, Detroit, Nashville and more. In addition to headlining around the world -  Flight Attendant spent the Winter opening up for the platinum awarded group, Highly Suspect, where they sold out theater venues across the US NorthEast. 

Flight Attendant continues to tour in 2026, booked by their agent, Andrew Goodfriend with TKO.  

With 2 independently released albums out in the world, Flight Attendant is currently hard at work on their 3rd (Title TBA) - produced by Don Miggs (Dolly Parton, Billy Corgan, Steven Tyler) and mixed by Grammy-Award winner Lawrence Rothman (Blondshell, Angel Olson, Amanda Shires).... It’s safe to say good, new sounds are on the horizon…

So time to put those tray tables up, because Flight Attendant is prepared for takeoff.
