Griek played the percussions in the Dutch music group The Jokers, in 1967 renamed to Ekseption. He left the group in 1968 to become a music producer. Some of the artists he represented were Dimitri van Toren, Jan Akkerman, Brainbox, Elly en Rikkert and André Hazes.

In 1988 Griek drove his car by accident in a river and drowned. André Hazes, who was a good friend of Griek, composed the song "Bedankt mijn vriend" (Thanks to my friend) as a tribute.
