"The Awkwords" is a Brussels based trio playing original music starting from the concepts of wordplay and tonguetwister.

The challenge is to translate the effect that these concepts have on language into music and to develop ideas focused on the energy between the bandmembers and the unity of the different compositions.

They won the First Prize at the Jazzcontest Mechelen in August 2017 and they released their first EP "#00" in September 2017.
