Vanessa Lee Carlton (born August 16, 1980) is an American singer-songwriter and pianist. Her debut album, Be Not Nobody (2002), was released by A&M Records and peaked at number five on the Billboard 200.

She independently produced her next two albums, Rabbits on the Run (2011) and Liberman (2015),<ref name="noisetrade5-7-2015">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:Cbignore</ref><ref name="twitter2-28-2014">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:Cbignore</ref><ref name="cbsnews6-11-2014">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:Cbignore</ref> both of which were acclaimed by critics for its personal subject matter and departure from her previous musical style.
