I'm currently listening to the new album Terre Neuve by Brigitte Fontaine, who could in some ways be considered the European Yoko Ono. Like Ono, she's an octogenarian, and like Ono she's still making music that's pretty radical and creative.
Fontaine is best-known for her seventies albums with her French-Algerian partner Areski Belkacem, which offered weird and experimental acid-folk with ethnic elements, but her more recent albums are psychedelic in a different way: I can hear similarities to Yoko Ono, Beck and a number of other indie and neo-psych artists. Topped off with her unique vocalisations, Terre Neuve is a fascinating album, and definitely worth checking out.
