• "Wind Up Missin' You" finds Tucker Wetmore shooting his shot for a real connection with a special lady at the bar.
  
  The heartfelt country jam dives straight into redemption. Sure, he admits he might look like every other Joe Schmoe with a ball cap, but beneath that hat is a heart ready to settle down. Wetmore assures the woman he's "turned the page on the old me," promising her something real.
• Though the song's title points to forlorn heartbreak, it actually portrays Wetmore's fear of missing out on an opportunity. He compares her to a "wave on a sunset," beautiful and unforgettable. He has a strong feeling he'll deeply regret it if they don't get to know each other better.
• Wetmore wrote "Wind Up Missin' You" with Thomas Archer (Luke Combs' "Lovin' On You," Jason Aldean's "Got What I Got") and Chris LaCorte (Morgan Wallen's "Ain't That Some," Sam Hunt's "Outskirts").
  
  "It paints a picture of young love to me, something we've all had a taste of at some point," said Wetmore. "Me and my buddies poured our hearts into it trying to capture that feeling just right."
• Chris LaCorte produced the track. He keeps the production clean, letting Wetmore's vocals and a subtle, guitar-driven percussion do the talking.
• Wetmore released "Wind Up Missin' You" via Back Blocks Music as the follow-up to his breakthrough hit "Wine Into Whiskey" on March 29, 2024. It debuted at #89 on the Hot 100 two weeks later, marking Wetmore's second consecutive appearance on the prestigious chart.
• Tucker Wetmore wrote his breakthrough song "Wine Into Whiskey" and "Wind Up Missin' You" in the same week.
