In celebration of its two-year anniversary, Vancouver indie label Big Smoke has released its annual ‘Spring Sampler’ for immediate download, with all proceeds going to the Inland Refugee Society of BC.

The compilation features recent tracks from all of the labels rostered acts—as well as some of the other projects their members are involved in—with the purpose of drawing attention to Vancouver’s thriving alternative arts community.

The album is available as a pay-what-you-want download exclusively through Big Smoke’s bandcamp page and all proceeds will go to the Inland Refugee Society of BC, who are dedicated to providing refugee claimants with essential services in British Columbia, Canada.

Earlier this week the label also announced its second annual birthday party, to be held on March 25th at Gam Gallery in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.
The show will feature performances from four acts off the sampler, with more information available on the Facebook event page.
