Pergola is the second studio album by Johan, released in 2001, five years after their debut album Johan. Both albums were released on the record label Excelsior Recordings. The album was well received by the press. On 6 May 2002, the album was released with a different cover in Germany. The album was named after the street in the Dutch city of Hoorn where lead singer Jacco de Greeuw lived at the time.[1][2] In 2009, the band received a gold record for Pergola. It had been sold over 30.000 times by that point, making it the band's best selling album.[3] The album has been described as "being part of the canon of Dutch pop music".[4]
De Greeuw wrote the album while battling depression and grief over the death of his father.
