Ilha
2022

Ilha

An original album diving into themes of renewal and reflection — as if, after a physical and existential shipwreck, the world found shelter and hope on a new "island." To build this symbolic territory, Badi Assad partnered with major names in Brazilian music from different generations — Chico César, Lucina, Alzira E, Dani Black, and Lívia Mattos — in collaborations that philosophize, through song, about what we carry into our inner island.

Cantos de Casa
2014

Cantos de Casa

Cantos de Casa is Badi Assad's first children's album — entirely original — celebrating the playful world of childhood by narrating a typical day in the life of a child, from waking up to bedtime. A key feature of the project is the use of household objects as instruments, matching the environment described in each song. For example, in "Salvador Dalí" and "Vamos Tomar Banho," which take place in the bathroom, sounds are made with toothbrushes, PVC pipes, copper tubes, and other everyday percussive elements. The album won the Cata-Vento Award from Fundação Padre Anchieta as Best Children's Album of the Year.

Wonderland
2006

Wonderland

Wonderland features an eclectic repertoire, bringing together songs by artists from different generations and styles, such as American singer Tori Amos and samba master Cartola, resulting in a unique and contemporary sound. With striking interpretations and creative arrangements, the album showcases Badi Assad's versatility as a vocalist, guitarist, and performer. One of the highlights is the track "Vacilão" (Zé Roberto), which includes a special appearance by singer Seu Jorge. Internationally acclaimed, Wonderland was selected by BBC London as one of the 100 best albums of the year and made it into Amazon.com's Top 30 list.

Verde
2004

Verde

Verde brings a mix of original songs and reinterpretations of Brazilian and international classics, with innovative arrangements and Badi Assad's trademark. The album features special participation from two great names in Brazilian music: Naná Vasconcelos, who contributes with his unmistakable percussion, and Toquinho, who joins Badi on one of the tracks. The fusion of different styles and Badi's musical sensitivity result in a work that highlights her technical skill and creativity as an interpreter and composer.
