Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning aren’t just acting in The Runaways - they’re lending their vocal talents to the film, too!

The twosome star as Joan Jett and Cherie Currie in the movie (out April 9), and here’s the first listen of the girls’ musical efforts.

“I was stunned,” Cherie told Spin about what she thought when she saw the film. “When you live something, your first reaction is to say, ‘Well, that’s not right’ or “Wait a minute, it didn’t happen that way.’ Then Joan and I saw it again and thought, ‘Wow, this is really good.’ It takes time for it to sink in. I thought the performances were just incredible.”
