Kathleen Hanna covers Bruce Springsteen's "Dancing in the Dark"

Riot grrrl OG Kathleen Hanna has covered Bruce Springsteen‘s Born in the U.S.A. synth-pop classic “Dancing in the Dark” for the soundtrack of upcoming film Maggie’s Plan. Kathleen is joined by actor Tommy Buck for the overall weird cover, which has them both singing in mock accents. Check it out below.

Kathleen also makes a cameo appearance in the film, which opens Friday and stars Greta Gerwig, Ethan Hawke, Julianne Moore, Maya Rudolph and Bill Hader. The soundtrack to Maggie’s Plan also features the original Springsteen version of “Dancing in the Dark.”

Kathleen’s band The Julie Ruin also have a new album coming, and tour dates including NYC’s Panorama and Atlanta’s recently-expanded Wrecking Ball.
