Rum Ragged: Silver Bells
I’m not sure why, exactly, but ‘Silver Bells’ has always been one of my favourite Christmas songs.
The version recorded by Rum Ragged for the Rum Ragged at Christmas album is, I think a particularly nice one. As one might expect, it takes a little bit of a folk turn. It suits the song especially well and helps distinguish it from the many over-produced holiday pop versions out there.

More Christmas and Holiday Music from Newfoundland & Labrador
Stay tuned for more great Christmas songs from Newfoundland and Labrador.
I'm a big fan of traditional Christmas music, I love to hear a modern rendition of a 300 year old carol but, occasionally, a brand new song comes to my attention and dominates my Christmas listening. Newfoundland and Labrador's musicians have been holding their own in both regards. I’ll be sharing local songs —both old and new— from now until Christmas in my 2023 NL Music Advent Calendar.
