Ninth House is a New York City band that plays a distinctive blend of Dark Rock, Gothic Rock, Country and Punk, managing to blend influences as varied as The Cure and Johnny Cash to produce their haunting and unforgettable sound.

The band was created in 1998 by singer/songwriter Mark Sinnis (Bass, Vocals) following the ten year run of his previous band, Apostates. Ninth House also features former Apostates drummer Francis Xavier, Zach on guitar and, most recently, Matthew Dundas on keys. Ninth House has two full length CDs to date. Their first release, Swim In The Silence featured the single “Injury Home” which appeared on the FOX TV show "Angel."

In 2005, the band released their 2nd album, The Eye That Refuses to Blink, which features impressive renderings of 2 classic 80s tracks, "The Ghost in You" and "Send Me an Angel," along with a guest vocal appearance on the dark anthem "Forsaken Psalm" by goth icon, Voltaire.

After the release of their 3rd CD, Realize and It's Gone (which features their popular cover of Johnny Cash's "Ghost Riders in the Sky"), lead singer Mark Sinnis embarked on a solo career, releasing 2 CDs worth of dark acoustic ballads to critical acclaim. Ninth House, however, remains active playing the New York City underground circuit and they maintain a devoted following.
