Big Sound was a Canadian produced television programme which aired for a run of 22 episodes.

As a satire, its aim was to poke fun at the superficial nature of the record industry, and celebrity in general. It featured numerous guest stars well known in the music business such as Scott Stapp, Matthew Good, and Bif Naked among others. It was shot entirely in Vancouver. Other notable guest star include The Walking Dead 's actress Laurie Holden. The show was nominated for several awards including one from Directors Guild of Canada, and in 2001, two Gemini Awards.
