Will it spread easily and fill in bare areas? Thanks

Sure it will do that. I use "crew cut" alot due to our conditions up
here.
Your lawn area may do better with something else. Unsure where you live
here in the pnw, but there should be a cenex farmers supply near-by. This
(imo) is the best resource for you to find seed and fertilizer.

Another great resource here in the pnw is your local master gardeners
extension office. They may have a better seed recommendation for your
area.

I'm in the Lacey area
My lawn nearly died last year , the grass clumped and bare areas appeared
Then last fall i installed an irrigation system. The lawn looks much
better
after the early winter but its still not where it should be. So my plan
is to find a seed that will spread easily and is right for my area and
then
slit seed the whole thing and see if i can get a decent looking lawn


Did you do any research on to why your lawn clumped and died? That doesn't
sound like a lack of water issue. In fact, the brown lawns of summer are a
natural consequence of hot dry weather. With the winter drought that we've
got now, I wouldn't expect to be using your sprinkler system too often in
August :-).
