Sweet Bells is the first Christmas album by English contemporary folk musician Kate Rusby, released on December 15, 2008 on Pure Records. In November 2011, Rusby released a follow-up, entitled While Mortals Sleep (2011).

The album was re-released on November 9, 2009 featuring new cover artwork by Marie Mills.[2] Sweet Bells, the carol featured on the album, is a carol peculiar to Yorkshire, based on the carol While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night but with an alternative tune and extra lyrics.
