Tim Scott McConnell aka Tim Scott or Ledfoot (born March 25, 1958) is an American singer-songwriter and 12-string guitarist who performs since 2007 under the artist name Ledfoot and created the music genre Gothic blues. He calls himself the "Master of Gothic Blues". The artist's repertoire consists solely of self-written songs. His songs are barely available over radio or TV channels. They have been released on audio albums only. Newer songs can be obtained via online stores. One of his most famous songs is "(What You Mean To Me )". A (live video clip ) is available on YouTube. Two of his songs gained international popularity through other artists: * "Swear" was covered by Sheena Easton for her 1984 album ''A Private Heaven''. * Bruce Springsteen recorded one of his songs, "High Hopes", on the ''Blood Brother'' EP (1996). The song, released by Springsteen as a single in November 2013, gave the title to his January 2014 ''studio album''. McConnell started touring at the age of 15. He got his first recording contract with Sire Records in 1982. He then recorded for Geffen on his next record in 1985, called "High Lonesome Sound". McConnell headed the LA-based band The Havalinas.
