Need Help - Front Lawn revamp! ATX

So i'm now that neighbor with a disgusting lawn in Austin, TX. It's driving me nuts and with the drought last year it was tuff to do anything. I want to do something about it yet still looking semi lush and being drought tolerant.

What type of grass is good in zone 8? I've been reading and it looks like bermuda or zoysia is the way to go in this zone. I will post a picture later, but there are 2 fairly large trees and the st augustine that was alive did well under it, but the sunny sides died off. now i'm almost full of thistle weeds.

Is it difficult to plant from seed? I'd imagine it would take a lot of work.
