Two great tastes that taste great together

Do you like cake? Banjos? Banjo-shaped cakes?

Anything and everything could be in store for Food Network's "Ace of Cakes" when The Avett Brothers arrive for a Thursday episode. The progressive folkies, who've upped their profile with the Rick Rubin-produced "I and Love and You," will be visiting Charm City Cakes in Baltimore for "a lot of baking and a bit of playing."

Food and folk music. Two of our very favorite things.

Enjoy these clips.

"I and Love and You" from Austin City Limits



"Slight Figure of Speech" from Spinner.com
