The Sweetest Ache are a Welsh indie-pop and jangle-pop band formed in Swansea in 1989. Signed to iconic Bristol-based indie label SARAH RECORDS, they became a defining name in the early-90s "twee" and jangle-pop/dream-pop scene, releasing celebrated 7" singles like "If I Could Shine" and "Tell Me How It Feels".

Following the well-received 'Christine's Cat' EP in December 2025, The Sweetest Ache returned with a new album, Reframed, released on November 9, 2026, via Windmill Records.
