Took your mixing notes into account, worked on getting the vox to sit better in the mix. Also, changed the lead guitar and fiddle interplay; opted for a different guitar. Thanks for all the nice comments! Love this board. You folks are of great help in recording, and I appreciate the critiques.

This is my first shot at country with vocals. I dont know if it counts because I'm from NJ. Yeah, the lyrics are silly.

Listen to Dread by JJW on #SoundCloud
https://soundcloud.com/rtk-iv/dread

RTs used - Bass 537, Drums Boom chicka, guitar 375 and 3220, fiddle 1694, reso 619 and mando 611.

The rest is me (guitar fills, leads and vox). Having a hard time developing a good acoustic guitar sound for my own additions. Using ambience for reverb and stock compression and EQ as aux effects. Any help there would be appreciated.

And here are the terrible lyrics:

Dread c. 2020 JJW

Get out of my head, you fill my life with dread
I dont know how it happened, but our love just came and went

Where I come from, a lady always was the tender one
Clever, strong and fun,
Not to be outdone
But you just aint that one.

I’d be better dead, than lay down in your bed
Life used to be a rainbow, but now all I see is red
Get out of my head, you fill my life with dread
I dont know how it happened, but our love just came and went

That day I thought I'd take you in
Decision made from rotgut gin
Put me in a tailspin
And we're out of time, we're both out of time

And now it's gone, quickly dead just as it had begun
Look what you've gone and done.

I’d be better dead, than lay down in your bed
Life used to be a rainbow, but now all I see is red
Get out of my head, you fill my life with dread
I dont know how it happened, but our love just came and went
