Rattlin' Bones is the first collaboration album between Australian country singer Kasey Chambers and Australian singer Shane Nicholson, released by Liberation Music in Australia on April 21, 2008 (see 2008 in music).

Chambers states that co-writing was something she always wanted to do but never felt comfortable with it until this record because their was no pressure recording it.[1] Nicholson states "writing was a product of our environment, something that happened in and around our daily lives. And something that getting to know the Chambers family has shown me is a beautiful way to make music."[1] "We didn't want a duets album, where people come together for a vocal collaboration and go on their way. We wanted an album that sounds like a band with two singers in it. It feels that way to us. And we hope it feels that way to the people who hear it too." states Chambers again.[2]

The album debuted at number-one on the Australian ARIA Albums Chart on April 28, 2008 with sales of 8,965 copies, knocking Apocalypso by The Presets off the top spot.[3] The following week the album was knocked off the top spot by Madonna with her 2008 album Hard Candy, and fell to number four.
