The discography of Canadian alternative rock band Barenaked Ladies consists of ten primary studio albums, thirty-one singles, two live albums, a greatest hits compilation, and three video releases. This list does not include material recorded by band members individually or with other side projects.
Barenaked Ladies was formed in 1988 by Steven Page and Ed Robertson, both singer-songwriter guitarists. Andy and Jim Creeggan joined the group on percussion and bass respectively approximately a year later. In mid-1990, Tyler Stewart joined the band as drummer with Andy Creeggan shifting to keyboards after returning from an exchange trip. Andy Creeggan left the band before the mid-1995 sessions for its third album (recorded as a four-piece). He was replaced by Kevin Hearn in early 1996. The band's lineup remained unchanged until Page left the band in early 2009.

Live albums
Barenaked Ladies has two true commercial live album releases. The band has also recorded and released many of their regular concerts for their fans both digitally and in directly-retailed physical media (CDs and flash drives), though these are typically mixed live during the show and are released as-is. Some of these concert recordings have become available in through some commercial retailers in both digital and CD form, though these are not considered a part of the band's primary discography. Similarly, a compilation of these live tracks, released in 2006 as part of the Extended Versions album series, is not considered a part of the band's primary discography.
