Hi well you have a bit left to learn ;-)
It sound good clear and nice to be the first time mixing it;s good
BUT The bass is fare to high and the overall sound it a bit to much as you se in the tracks you have 2 guitar, mandolin, Cello,
But you don't use them Now the bass take over the show Use the track you have Pan L-R on the guitar delay one 18ms and you get a nice big sounding guitar
Balance all instrument a.
listening in MONO then you hear if some instrument sound bad or not at all

Well a little bit of advice good luck in the future Mixes

Tom.

Listening on headphones it doesnt sound bad, maybe a bit compressed for the kind of song but I like the bas and the level is high, but thats somthin I could have done too.
The advice listnin mono is good !
And so is the bas sound. I made a worse job than you there Big Grin
