Bryan co-wrote two of the album's 14 tracks, including its title track, and the team of Jeff Stevens and Jody Stevens handled the album's production. The album's release was preceded by the release of three radio singles, as well as an EP, also titled Mind of a Country Boy , on June 14, 2024. "Closing Time in California" was issued as a promotional single in conjunction with the album announcement on August 8, 2024. It marks Bryan's first new album in four years, with the singer remarking: "I've been able to take my time and really compile songs for this album. If it's a song that I cut two or three years ago, and I still love it, and it still sounds fresh, then I feel like it'll stand the test of time".
