I see what tomson means about screaming Emigre.
That's generally the reason why I also never turn to their stock first when searching for jobbing fonts.

However, i think Tarzana would look a lot 'less Emigre' in a non-red colour away from the Emigre site.

It's a competent font, if a little lacking in the way of regular body weights, but I'd happily trial it in situ to see how it sits.
I'd be inclined to think that the heavier weights will lack the sobriety for your context, but
I can imagine the lighter weights working quite well as a headings only face.
