Barenaked on a Stick is Canadian alternative rock band Barenaked Ladies' first release in USB flash drive format. They were one of the first bands to attempt this, and were noted by several critics as innovative in this area. Due to the content on the stick, it is conjectured that this release was more of a test to see if the format would succeed. This paved the way for the band's second USB release of their 2006 album, Barenaked Ladies Are Me.

The 128 MB USB was sold initially at the band's 2005 holiday concert tour, and then through Nettwerk's online store, and though Amazon.com. The stick is packaged in a carded bubble package (similar to how an action figure is packaged), and is silver with the text "Barenaked on a stick" written along the side.

The USB stick contained a variety of contents, all the audio of which had previously been released by the band. The 128 MB size forced low quality bitrates. Both factors strengthened the belief that the release was mainly of a test of the medium.
