While trying to identify the song, I also got a better idea what the watchwigs commercial was about. WIGS is a YouTube channel with a number of shows presented as five-to-ten-minute video serials, some standalone short films, and documentaries. They're using "name" actors like Jennifer Beals, and the production values look very good. I'll hazard that WIGS* (slogan: "Where It Gets Interesting". I can't help the snarky thought that "Where Our Acronyms Suck" might also be suitable.) is one of numerous attempts to find an audience for scripted drama online, with a fair amount of money and talent put into the project.

Chasing Down "Chasing The Sun"
I've been seeing commercials for watchwigs.com, promoting an online series of scripted dramas, concentrating on women's stories. But what really stuck in my memory was the striking music backing the montage of snippets from the shows. Some Googling finally found the song used in the commercial, Louise Dowd & Richard Salmon's "Chasing The Sun". Several versions are posted on YouTube, but the one below seems the best:
Very nice. I'll have to check out some of Louise Dowd's other music available online.
