Perennial is the second studio album by Australian folk musician Vera Blue (the first under the name Vera Blue). The album was announced on 15 June 2017, and released on 21 July 2017.

Upon announcement, Vera Blue said: "Perennial is a term for plants that come back year after year, and I like to relate that to memory, feelings and emotions. It's what the record is all about; relationships can be very cyclical, or never-ending, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's just part of life."[2] The album was recorded between Sydney and Los Angeles and is arranged into three chapters which chronologically trace the development of the songwriter.[3]

Vera Blue promoted the album with a national tour across Australia from July to September 2017.[4]

At the J Awards of 2017, the album was nominated for Australian Album of the Year.[5]
