Background
Wetmore said about the EP, "In a lot of ways, this feels like my introduction to the world, so I wanted to share some sides of me y’all haven’t seen yet." On September 13, 2024, he released "Silverado Blue", which serves as the promotional single from the EP.{{Cite web |last=White |first=Logan |date=2024-09-13 |title=Tucker Wetmore shares new song "Silverado Blue" |url=https://substreammagazine.com/2024/09/tucker-wetmore-shares-new-song-silverado-blue/ |access-date=2024-09-16 |website=Substream Magazine |language=en-US}}
The title is taken from "Wind Up Missin' You".
