dexter winklemeyer – Head Bliss Monkey

Fuelled by love and friendship, dexter winklemeyer is the performer/poet persona of Kim Saltarski – filmmaker, father, friend, Unitarian Universalist and world traveller. Based in Toronto, Canada, his The Bliss Monkeys’ Let Love Talk album represents a lifetime of living, learning and reflecting on all of the bliss this deeply interconnected world provides when using love as our guide.

Kim’s ultra indie label Amazing Ain’t It Music showcases his years of positive musical incarnations, including the progressive thought rock – Controlled Breeding In Sheep, the mystical folk duo – The Ungrateful Dead Beatles, and now his primarily musical expression – The Bliss Monkeys.
