The mood of the piece fits pretty well. My biggest crtique is that the chord loop is too repetitive. Also the jug from 0:30 is too chaotic and don't blend very well with the other instruments in my opinion. You could improve this kind of piece by having some sort of melodic line, not necessarily by adding an instrument, just by avoiding the constant repetition of the same pattern on the piano and banjo.

What I like about this jam are the song ideas that are way outside of my comfort zone, and comments that make me think about ways to improve overall. I'm not trained in music theory so chord progressions, solo techniques and such don't occur to me and it seems whenever I try something new, it ends up repeating too much. Duly noted. I had melody ideas for the jug after submission, and the only way to get different "notes" while doing it live was by using the voice, and I don't know how to make it not sound like a kazoo from jug blowing yt videos lol. Thanks for the feedback!
haha, it was brave of you to go for the live jug recording. Also even without music theory you can find good chord progressions by ear and try to find a good association of 16 bars of chord progression 1 then, 16 bars of chord progression 2 etc... It can be time consuming especially if your are aiming for a precise atmosphere.
