Catto wrote a Portuguese version of "No Me Compares" ("Não Me Compares"), originally written in Spanish by Alejandro Sanz. Catto's version was recorded by Sanz himself featuring Ivete Sangalo as part of the Salve Jorge telenovela's soundtrack.[8]

In 2013, she released her first live album and DVD, Entre Cabelos, Olhos e Furacões. The release shows took place at the Teatro Sesc Vila Mariana, in São Paulo, on 3 August 2013.[9]

On 8 September 2015, she released her sophomore album Tomada via Agência de Música and Radar Records.[10] The album release show happened on 14 November 2015, at the Auditório Ibirapuera, in São Paulo.[11] Dois dias antes do lançamento deste álbum, Catto se apresentou com a Orquestra Sinfônica e o Coro Lírico de Minas Gerais no Palácio das Artes em Belo Horizonte, onde foram executadas suas próprias músicas com arranjos compostos especialmente para essa apresentação.

Still in 2015, she guest performed on "Trono de Estudar", a song written by Dani Black in support of secondary students who opposed the São Paulo state government's plan to re-structure the state schools. The track featured 17 other artists: Chico Buarque, Arnaldo Antunes (ex-Titãs), Tiê, Dado Villa-Lobos (Legião Urbana), Paulo Miklos (Titãs), Tiago Iorc, Lucas Silveira (Fresno), Zélia Duncan, Pedro Luís (Pedro Luís & A Parede), Fernando Anitelli (O Teatro Mágico), André Whoong, Lucas Santtana, Miranda Kassin, Tetê Espíndola, Helio Flanders (Vanguart), Felipe Roseno and Xuxa Levy.[12]

In 2016, she was featured at the second episode of Versões, a Canal Bis program, in which she sang hits by Cássia Eller, such as "Gatas Extraordinárias", "Malandragem", "Relicário", "O Segundo Sol", among others.[13] The show became a tour that took him to several cities including São Paulo,[14] where she performed at the 2017 Virada Cultural, in which she called for direct elections following the impeachment of Dilma Rousseff.[15]

Also in 2017, she toured with Simone Mazzer for the Prêmio da Música Brasileira, with Gonzaguinha tribute shows.[16]

In 2017, she began the "Over" tour, having only acoustic guitarists Pedro Sá and Luís Felipe de Lima as supporting musicians. Catto performed songs from her previous albums and also songs by Portishead, Marília Mendonça and Vinicius de Moraes.[17]

Still in 2017, she performed in a series of shows with artists such as Maria Bethânia, Vanessa da Matta, Johnny Hooker, Xênia França and Mestrinho. She paid a tribute to Vinicius de Moraes at Espaço das Américas besides Toquinho and Daniela Mercury,[18] and to Dalva de Oliveira's centennial at Teatro J Safra in São Paulo, besides singers such as Angela Maria, Alaíde Costa, As Bahia e a Cozinha Mineira, Ayrton Montarroyos, Célia, Cida Moreira, Claudette Soares, Edy Star, Fafá de Belém, Marina de La Riva, Maria Alcina, Márcio Gomes, Tetê Espíndola, Veronica Ferriani and Virgínia Rosa.[19] She also performed a solo tribute to Cauby Peixoto at Bar Brahma; Peixoto once cited Catto as one of his favorite new singers.[20]

2017-present: CATTO and other projects

On 24 November 2017, she released her third studio album CATTO.[21]

Critic Hagamenon Brito, from Correio da Bahia, said CATTO is Catto's best album and that she is the best singer of her generation.[22] "It was the discovery of my silence, of what was essential following the end of a seven-year marriage, of moving out, of my arrival to the 30's. Professionally, I didn't need a new album but everything flowed cinematographically to this", she said in an interview to the critic.

Her "O Nascimento de Vênus Tour" was premiered in Portugal[23] [24] and at Sesc Vila Mariana in São Paulo in early 2018.[25] [26]

In March, she took the tour to the United States,[27] with three shows[28] at SxSW festivalin Austin, Texas. The festival's website described Catto as "one of the great Brazilian voices from the 21st century, like a diva and something between Freddie Mercury and Maria Bethânia, between bolero and modern glam rock".[29]

On 28 May, the video for "Manifestação" was released, featuring 30 artists celebrating the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.[30]

On 27 July, she took the "O Nascimento de Vênus Tour" to the Garanhuns Winter Festival (FIG 2018), performing at the main stage alongside Gaby Amarantos and Johnny Hooker.[31] On the following day, she performed at the Lula Livre Festival, at the Arcos da Lapa in Rio de Janeiro, besides artists such as Chico Buarque, Gilberto Gil, Beth Carvalho, Odair José, Marcelo Jeneci, Aíla, Gang 90 and other who believed former president Lula da Silva should be released from prison following corruption accusations.[32]

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, she presents the karaoke program Love Catto Live.[33]
