What began in the halls of South Lakes High School has officially hit the airwaves. Out of Order—the four-piece rock band formed in 2021 by Reston natives Daniel Ogun, Colin Surabian, and Ezra Beck Baker, along with longtime friend Jason Hill of Ashburn—has just released its debut single, “Loretta.” Within a week, the track has already been streamed thousands of times.

The band members, all 19-year-old college students, channel the raw energy of their musical heroes—Led Zeppelin, Greta Van Fleet, and Red Hot Chili Peppers—blending classic rock riffs with a bold, modern edge. Their sound is electrified, unapologetic, and deeply rooted in the blues-rock tradition they honed while playing gigs across Reston and Herndon.

Lead guitarist Daniel Ogun, a neuroscience major on the pre-med track at George Mason University’s Honors College, delivers solos marked by both precision and fire—a reflection of his dual life in science and sound. Bassist Colin Surabian, who studies chemical engineering and music at MIT, brings rhythmic complexity and technical finesse to the band’s foundation. Drummer Ezra Beck Baker is taking a gap year while studying geospatial intelligence and music at Penn State, his dynamic percussion driving the band’s live energy. On vocals, Jason Hill, a student of educational studies with a minor in psychology at Roanoke University, brings soul and storytelling to every track.

“Loretta” captures the spirit of a band that has grown together—from garage rehearsals to packed local shows—and now steps onto a larger stage. It’s not just a song; it’s a statement, and a reminder that Reston’s creative pulse is alive and loud.

With more music on the way and live shows in the works, Out of Order is poised to carry the rock tradition into a new era—one riff, one lyric, one crowd at a time.
