American recording artist LeAnn Rimes has released 17 studio albums, nine compilation albums, one live album, one soundtrack album, three extended plays, 60 singles, nine Christmas singles and 16 promotional singles. Rimes has sold over 48 million records worldwide as of April 2025, with 16.5 million albums and 5.5 million singles certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Rimes was ranked the 17th best-selling music artist of the 1990s by Billboard. She was also the 31st most successful country artist of the 2000s.
She began recording at age 11 and released two studio albums and one EP on independent Nor Va Jak label. In 1995, she was signed to Curb Records in Nashville, Tennessee. In 1996, her debut single titled "Blue" was released and peaked at number ten on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart while topping the Canadian RPM Country Tracks list. Her major label debut and third studio album of the same name was issued on Curb the same year and sold over ten million copies worldwide. Other singles spawned from the album were "The Light in Your Eyes" and the number one country song "One Way Ticket (Because I Can)". Curb followed the release with a reissue of her independently released album All That (1994) titled Unchained Melody: The Early Years; the album was her first to reach number one on the Billboard 200 album chart.
In 1997, Rimes crossed over into pop music with the single "How Do I Live". It reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and was also a hit internationally. It was included on her next studio release You Light Up My Life: Inspirational Songs. The album reached number one on the Billboard 200 and the Canadian RPM albums chart. In 1998, Rimes released Sittin' on Top of the World, which featured the top ten country singles "Commitment" and "Nothin' New Under the Moon". In 1999, she released her self-titled album, which featured the top ten Country hit "Big Deal". In 2001, Curb Records released the compilation I Need You, which featured the international crossover hit "Can't Fight the Moonlight" and the title track.
In 2002, Rimes released Twisted Angel, and followed it with Greatest Hits the next year. Rimes released her first Christmas studio record in 2004 titled What a Wonderful World. In 2005, she issued the country project This Woman, which debuted at number two on the country albums chart and spawned three top ten country songs. It was followed by the international studio release Whatever We Wanna (2006) and the country album Family (2007), the latter of which reached the top five on the United States album charts. Rimes released two more studio albums on Curb before moving to RCA Records in 2016 to release the album Remnants, which peaked at number 15 in the United Kingdom and at 88 in the United States.
