biographical info

Sally Can't Dance? is the vision of two talented young women - Chloe Abbott and Anna Wheeler. Barley out of high school these songwriters from St.Johns Newfoundland hope you stop to listen and enjoy a bit of Sally!


"Sally lived deep within a cave far above the tallest mountain and behind a wall of water. One day, with her two left feet she walked down the meadow and decided to play some music.
"I'm scared!" she cried and desperately wanted to go home.
"We're all scared" said a dove on a nearby limb, "why don't you tell us in a song." So she did. She wrote a tune called "Sally" then she wrote another and another and another until she had so many pages of lyrics she carefully folded them up and made a ship. She piled in her instruments and dancing shoes and took the wheel. But instead of climbing up the mountain, she went straight to town where she loves to play on winter nights. Check out a show and buy a CD. "

What a Christmas! Sally spent the month in a non-stop parade of performing. Highlights included their first Headlining show, a rockin party on a boat for all the under-agers and brining in the new year for the crowd at CBTG'S in St.John's.
Many nights were spent past 5 am trying to record a demo that would kinda-maybe-sorta- hopefully sound like what's in our heads. Recording is hard in your guitar players basement when the only money you have goes towards Tim's coffees..Not to mention what songs to choose, a lot of the favorites got the cut due to the lack of time and dollar bills.. where's summer when you need it !?
Now Anna goes back to Toronto to finish her first year of University and Chloe sludges through the last leg of Grade 12, however school is looking like a much needed break.
Playing shows will begin again in April and the demo will be out as soon as the girls can agree on a design. ha!
Until then we'll think about Dogs on roofs, 18th century shipwrecks, Cranberry juice, Asian textiles, LOLing, cucumber sandwiches, band halls,dinosaur chases and here's hoping 2008 is a continuation of the beautiful feast the circus clowns cooked up for us all !

"Up up she jumped high unto his shoulders, little girls always wish that they were older
But maybe you should settle down
Yeah take a look before you leave this town!"
