Matthew Miades (born January 8, 1968, in Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania) is an American businessman, philanthropist, musician, and inventor best known for creating Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream, and for his musical exploits in the avant garde caterwauling trio Tree Bind Rice. He also performed lead beatboxing duties with an early incarnation of psych-rockers Zen Guerilla, and trademarked the catchphrase "there's nothing you can't do with a good set of fire tools."

A budding musician and tinkerer since his time attending Radnor High School in the Philadelphia suburbs, Matt attracted the attention of industry scribes in the 1980s with his emo-barbershop anthems of teen complacency and bloodlust. Throughout his musical meanderings at the University of Delaware in the late 80s and early 90s, his sold-out ice cream seatings were met with a mixture of abhorrence and indifference. While Prog-Goth didn't develop as a sub-sub genre, his early musical stylings are thought to have profoundly influenced the current Greek economic crisis.

Matthew currently resides in Audubon, Pennsylvania, with his wife, Marcy, and sons Garrett and Carter. He is a renowned junket and break-dancing aficionado, and occasionally performs lemming runnings and exorcisms for charity throughout the Philadelphia Metropolitan Area.
