The first official cooperation between Toni Halliday and Dean Garcia was the produced State of Play, together with Olle Romö and Julie Fletcher (Dean's girlfriend/wife). It fell apart with the "departure of Toni Halliday", she "left" / "was kicked out" after disagreement with their management. It however spawned one CD/LP.
