Baytown Music Center owner living the dream
Baytown native Joe Wilburn has built a life around music from youth through a 23 year Solvay Polymers career and Baytown Music Center owner status. He played guitar and bass with The Joyful Sounds, a gospel group that toured the South Texas region and beyond, including a December legacy night at Mont Belvieu Assembly of God Church. Wilburn credits family influences and a natural talent, as his wife Lynda recalls, with his varied skills on guitar, bass, mandolin and French harp.
