On October 2, 2010, Vanessa Carlton tweeted that she had completed her fourth studio album. No time frame for release was given at that time.
In February 2011, a video was posted to Carlton's official website. In the video, she explained the process for producing her album, and stated that she questioned whether or not she would make another record, as she had been experimenting with writing film scores. She further explained that after deciding to produce another record, Carlton felt she needed to create the ideal environment in order to produce what she felt was the perfect album. She said that she wanted to capture a dreamy, fantastical sound with 'Rabbits on the Run,' a title and concept inspired by books like Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time, and Richard Adams's Watership Down. In order to achieve that sound, Carlton recorded the album direct to tape and recruited a tight-knit team of collaborators, which included producer Steve Osborne, The Upwelling guitarist Ari Ingber, and My Morning Jacket drummer Patrick Hallahan. She also enlisted the help of a children's choir, particularly the Capital Children's Choir, saying that some of her melodies were "just built" for choral arrangements. It was also mentioned in the video that the recording for the album took place in Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios in Box, England, which Carlton considered as the secret "fifth element she needed" to complete the album.

On March 1, 2011, the release date for the album was given, as well as an announcement that Carlton had signed with Razor & Tie.
On April 3, it was announced via Twitter that Carousel had been selected to be the first single from the new album. Razor & Tie later announced that the single would be released digitally on May 3.

I Don't Want to Be a Bride I like your company got a fresh philosophy Never knew such…
In the End And in the end You begin again It's the way of all…
London Waste away the days Waiting on a new age But time betrays…
Tall Tales for Spring God rest his head Sunday afternoon And the wicked in me…
The Marching Line Boots on concrete Don't slip on the leaves Smile at the stra…
