Working in this little song idea... any thoughts or suggestions

I make music for fun and also play live sessions once or twice a week I’d love some comments and critique on the music I’ve put together thank you

Wondering if this has knitted together well enough and if there's balance between the different harmonic elements without mud. Any thoughts on how I might improve this mix? Many thanks.

Hi all, It's been quite a while. I've been messing around with a few things and have stayed ITB ...even using all VSTI for drums, guitar, and bass. I picked up the Weiss Complete plugin package, and it has turned around my beliefs on mastering needing to be done all OTB. So far I'm not looking back either.

What more needs to be said? Banjos and a girl :)
