"Building Together" is a fundraising compilation record brought to you by SixTwelve & Swat Meet Inc out of OKC.
Over the summer, both community building/after care programs banded together to create a unique experience for children, musicians, listeners and the community.
They assembled a team of Oklahoma based artists to meet up with kids from their respective aftercare programs virtually, talked to them about what kind of songs they would want to hear and helped them develop these ideas. Then, they reached out to artists from all over Oklahoma to transform these wild child imaginings into fully fledged songs. The record sees familiar bands performing material about content you might not usually expect from them. From Jabee crooning about different cartoons over the decades, Samantha Crain singing about how the world loves to be green or Broncho singing about the simplicity of a great friendship. And everything inbetween. By purchasing this record, you are helping to keep SixTwelve & Swat Meet doing what they do best. Working together to build a better community. Thank you.
The copper yellow vinyl includes 2 inserts with lyric sheets and a thank you card. In addition, you will be the first to hear all these songs, as the full digital release will be later and vinyl comes with a complimentary download immediately.
Includes unlimited streaming of Building Together
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

I like apples
It’s my favorite fruit
I know it sounds kind crazy that I’m writing a song like that
And I also like avocados
And I also like toast, but not in the toaster
Yeah yeah yeah oh oh
I don’t know why I’m singing this song
I just am
I’m singing this song about food
I don’t know why
I like sandwiches with only lettuce cheese and pickles
Lettuce cheese and pickles
Lettuce cheese and pickles
And I like spaghetti with sauce on the side
On the side
Sauce on the side
I like avocados and guacamole
Avocados, guacamole
And I like toast, but not in the toaster
I don’t know why I’m singing this song
I just am
I’m singing this song about food
I don’t know why
I don’t know why I like apples and guacamole
Apples
Guacamole
Yeah I like avocados, I like guacamole
Avocados, Guacamole
I like apples, but not applesauce
I don’t like tomatoes / I don’t like tomato sauce
But I do like ketchup
It’s really really weird
Cause I like my spaghetti
Sauce on the side
I don’t know why I’m singing this song
I just am
I’m singing this song about food
I don’t know why
