At only 17 years of age, Gorey-McSorley already has international experience having performed in Ireland, Scotland, the U.S. and Canada.
Born and raised in Saint John, New Brunswick, Hall was introduced to music by his father, a man with French-Acadian roots who had a passion for the subject. By the time he was eight, Hall was playing the accordion and getting his first exposure to Celtic music by listening to a variety of Scottish and Irish tunes while developing a French-Acadian style. He received his first fiddle at the age of 13.
