As you'll see in the clip, their boozy manager Dave (Bridesmaids' charming cop Chris O'Dowd) helps the girls get the hang of soul music ... oh, mercy!
It's got the makings of a feel-good hit after receiving a standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival in May. Plus, it's pop singer Jessica's second big-screen musical after starring in 2009's Bran Nue Dae.
The Sapphires sashays into cinemas on August 9.
