In December 2023, Tucker Wetmore teased a demo of the song in a snippet on the video-sharing app TikTok. [1] The song garnered significant traction online prior to its release, [2] being used in over 83,000 UGCs on TikTok. On March 11, 2024, Wetmore announced the song would be released on March 29. [3] He has also said of the song:
I'm incredibly proud of this song. It paints a picture of young love to me, something we've all had a taste of at some point. Me and my buddies poured our hearts into it trying to capture that feeling just right. When we wrote it, we knew we had something special, but it was the support from the fans that turned it into something bigger than I could've ever dreamed of. You guys changed my life with the last song, and I hope y'all enjoy this one too. [2]
The instrumental of the song consists of primarily slow-strumming guitar, [1] [4] [5] as well as percussion. Lyrically, it finds Tucker Wetmore trying to win over the heart of a woman at the bar [4] [2] and convince her that he truly loves her, [4] despite knowing she will likely reject him. [5] In the opening, he explains that although his appearance and demeanor may suggest otherwise, his intentions for a long-term, committed relationship are sincere. [4] [5] The chorus sees him complimenting the woman and sharing the reasons why he fell in love with her. [5]
"Wind Up Missin' You" was released on June 10, 2024, as Wetmore's debut single to country radio via a partnership between Back Blocks Music and UMG Nashville. [6]

In the entertainment industry, a sleeper hit refers to a film, television series, music release, video game, or other entertainment product that was unpromising on release but eventually became a surprise success. A sleeper hit may have little promotion or lack a successful launch but gradually develops a fandom following media attention, which in turn increases its public exposure and public interest in the product. As Variety puts it, "A 'sleeper hit' can be defined as the kind of show that catches us by surprise—programs whose popularity grows over time and can ultimately outshine the preordained hits." A sleeper hit often lacks star performers or high production values, but prevails, at times against its own makers' expectations, on the strength of such qualities as narrative, approach, or novelty, as well as market accidents. Sleeper hit films benefit theater owners because the owners keep a larger percentage of money from ticket sales.
