Bill Harrell (1934–2013) was an American bluegrass musician and singer-songwriter from Southwest Virginia. He was a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and a Grammy-nominated artist. He was best known as the lead singer of the Virginia Squires and the Original Dillards.

Harrell released several albums throughout his career, including his best-known album, I Know a Little Bit About a Lot of Things (1970). This album included the popular song “Cotton-Eyed Joe”, which was later covered by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Other notable albums include A Picture From Life's Other Side (1974) and When It's Time for the Whippoorwill to Sing (1976).
