Answer by Music Consultant
There are surprisingly lots of jobs you can get in the industry with no musical talent. In fact the music business is filled with people who really love music but can’t play a note. Here are some job titles that you could hold.

Artist Manager
Record Label Executive
(A&R, Promotion, Marketing, Publicity, Sales etc)
Music Publishing executive
Performance Royalties Organization Executive (ASCAP, BMI)
Tour manager
Booking agent
Concert Promoter
Entertainment Lawyer
Music Business Manager
Music Journalist
………

You probably wouldn’t be as good as a guitar tech or an instrument manufacturer representative or a vocal coach etc but there are plenty of gigs in music for those without musical talent.

All that said, you could always learn…

Best,

Rick
