I can't help you with GarageBand stuff, but with your vocals, have you eq'd them? A high pass filter can help remove low end frequencies on your vocal track which will help them stand out in the mix, do you have a vocal bus/auxiliary track set up (not sure what they are called I'm GarageBand)?
Compressors can help bring things forward, the reverbs and delays you have on the vocals are going to push them back into the mix, have a look at your plugins and see if you can set frequency cut offs, so the effect is only working part of the vocal track - for instance, I set my vocal delays to effect around 800hz - 5khz only, cut the lows will mean it is clearer in the mix.
A gentle eq boost around 2khz or 3.5 kHz (has to be gentle) with a narrow cut on other instrument tracks helps with my vocals, depending on the octave I am singing in.
One other thing I noticed, is the bass panned to the right? Are you going for that old Beatles early stereo sound?

Judging by your project, you are on the cusp of becoming a power user. Both the host device and the GarageBand revision may be at their limits. Try and find out the CPU usage statistics.
I am trying to remember whether GB defines a maximum project folder size? If you have numerous instrument part tracks and each of these involves amp modelling and/or modulation effects, it places huge demands on the tablet's processor chip. One way around this is to Solo one track at a time then export it, complete with all of the effects. Save this audio track. Re-import it to a fresh audio track.
It may be worthwhile opening a new "Phase 2" project folder especially for hosting these saved tracks. This would be the modern equivalent of bouncing down onto a second multi-track tape recorder. Very Beatles-esque!

Audioshare is worth having anyway.
If you're doing serious stuff I'd recommend taking a look at some demos of both Cubasis and Auria Pro and getting the one that looks like you'll get on with the workflow best (and actually I think there are demo or low cot versions of both to try yourself)

I did all of this just fooling around and didn't really have a song in mind. Just added some singing to finish it off. I kinda like it. But different to our band. Which is very guitar heavy.
I find garage easy to make ideas. But will look at cubasis more as I do have that.

The said I actually use it a bit more these days - because a few things recently have started life in the Music Memos app on iPhone which then syncs to GarageBand. I do a bit more there and at some point take some on to Cubasis
