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.
The two left the band and were replaced by Marcus Congleton, Benji Lysaght (guitar), Matt Dublin (bass), Andrew Haskell (keyboards), and Darren Beckett (drums). They signed to TVT Records after getting positive reviews from their live shows and recorded a self titled EP Ambulance LTD in 2003. Recently the rest of the group decided they did not want to carry on with the band, though Congleton carried on Ambulance LTD. He's still working with The Velvet Underground's John Cale in LA writing new material. In 2008, Ambulance LTD gained new members, Ezra Oklan on drums, Ian Fenger on guitar, Xander McMahon on keyboard and Jeremy Kay on bass. They will go on tour in early April 2008 with their first performance at Middle East Downstairs in Cambridge, MA on April 2. There's a whole slew of songs that Congleton recorded with John Cale in LA in 2006, of which these haven't yet officially surfaced.
In 2008 their song "Heavy Lifting" was featured in a scene of the feature film "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"
