We live in the high desert area of the southern rockies. Our "soil" is mostly sand. Blue grama grass grows naturally here and is highly valuable as open
range forage. It is low bunch grass of a light minty turquiose color so not quite what midwesterners consider a lawn. The spring seed heads are quite showy.
You may also want to first plant with some green manure cover crops like clover, and buckwheat, native wild flowers, let them amend the soil then seed in the
with the lawn,.
