How Francis Mercier went from Frat Parties to Selling Out Clubs Worldwide | EF EP 154

From a perfect SAT math score to a residency at Hï Ibiza, Francis Mercier built his career on networking, not luck. Olivia Mancuso sits down with Francis Mercier, the Haitian DJ, producer, and Deep Root Records founder.

He breaks down spinning $300 frat parties at Brown and throwing his own New York parties when no club would book him yet. Francis also shares the seven-year grind to earn a major artist's recognition, and why connecting with people beats raw studio talent.

For any DJ or producer, it is a real blueprint on networking, resilience, and timing your move to a music city.
