Al Hopkins (Albert Green Hopkins, Gap Creek, North Carolina, June 5, 1889 – October 21, 1932) was an American musician, a pioneer of what later came to be called country music.
Hopkins played piano, an unusual instrument for Appalachian music. The members of the band that brought him to fame (which was known by several names: The Hill Billies, Al Hopkins' Original Hill Billies, and Al Hopkins and His Buckle Busters) came variously from Hopkins' own Watauga County, North Carolina and from Grayson and Carroll Counties in Virginia.
