Snapshot:: A Group with 7 releases. No members known.

Ambulance LTD is an indie rock group formed in Spanish Harlem, New York in 2000. The band was founded by singer and guitarist Michael Di Liberto and Dave Longstreth of Ohio. They were joined by Marcus Congleton, who brought in Andrew Haskell (keyboards), Aaron Nevezie (bass), and Darren Beckett (drums). After Haskell and Nevezie left the band, they were replaced by Benji Lysaght (guitar) and later Matt Dublin (bass). They signed to TVT Records after getting positive reviews from their live shows and recorded their debut album LP in 2004.

The band mixes the genres of dream pop, indie rock and the British shoegazing movement of the late '80s and early '90s. Their influences range from The Beatles and The Rolling Stones to Spiritualized, My Bloody Valentine, and Elliott Smith. The band has said that "their niche is not sticking to any particular niche" and that they don't want to be stuck in any sub-genre of rock.

An EP titled New English EP was released in March 2006.

Benji Lysaght, Matt Dublin, and Darren Beckett left Ambulance LTD to form a band called The Red Romance with the addition of Adam Chilensk on bass, leaving Congleton as the only remaining member.
